For a public intercultural and multilingual library in Luxembourg: a vibrant space to celebrate our diversity Luxembourg is home to 180 nationalities, with 47% of residents holding foreign nationality. This human richness is our strength, but it deserves a concrete place in which to fully express itself: a public intercultural and multilingual library, open to everyone. Why is this project essential? • Access to reading for all: books in all family (mother-tongue) languages, free and accessible, so that every child and every family can read and learn in their own language • Equal opportunities: reducing inequalities in access to culture and education by offering resources tailored to all communities • A space for encounter: a place where cultures meet, stories are shared, and people learn from one another • Support for family-language or mother-tongue schools: more than 40 schools teaching over 30 languages could find resources and a space for their activities • A model of integration: demonstrating that Luxembourg, a multilingual country, can be an example of social cohesion and peaceful coexistence
