Dear friend of Arkadia,
You are heartily invited to listen to Minister of Justice Tuija Brax and Member of Parliament Pekka Haavisto discuss language policy on Friday 11.2 at 5pm.
Finnish language policy, the status of Swedish vis-à-vis Finnish and the relation between language policy and democracy will all be discussed. A fascinating debate as you can well imagine!
