The Queen’s Translation Exchange is committed to making the case for a cultural and creative languages education at all levels. In recent years, we have developed an advocacy strand to our work, contributing to policy debates around languages education and the role of languages in public life, through research and campaigns. On this page, you can find and share relevant policy briefings, articles and reports on our projects and our vision for languages education.
