Africa-Press – Angola. <\/strong><\/span>Portuguese Language Week takes place from the 6th to the 10th of this month, in Luanda, as part of a promotion by the Ministries of Education and Foreign Affairs, under the motto \u201clanguage, knowledge and development\u201d.<\/b><\/p>\n

The event will bring together politicians, diplomats, academics, researchers, teachers, students, among other entities, with the purpose of sharing the different realities about the Portuguese language and valuing the various forms of communication.<\/p>\n

The Portuguese Language Week also aims to share knowledge of the linguistic and socio-cultural reality in the Community of Portuguese Speaking Countries (CPLP), promote areas lacking in studies in the field of communication, as well as bring specialists together and establish partnerships.<\/p>\n

The opening session takes place at 9 am on Monday, at the Escola do Sa\u0303o Jose\u0301 do Cluny, in Luanda, with the presence of the Minister of Education, Lui\u0301sa Grilo, and officials from the Ministries of Foreign Affairs and Culture.<\/p>\n

The event will feature a conference on \u201cLiterature and Literacy at School\u201d and falls on the 5th of May, a date that serves as Portuguese Language and Cultures Day of the Community of Portuguese Speaking Countries (CPLP) and World Portuguese Language Day.<\/p>\n

The first date was proclaimed by the CPLP Council of Ministers, in 2009, and the second by UNESCO, in 2019, recognizing that the Portuguese Language is an intangible heritage of immeasurable value.<\/p>\n

In parallel with Portuguese Language Week, an event that takes place annually, the Ministry of Education is concluding the National Reading Plan, an instrument to promote literature that underwent a public consultation process, from the 15th to the 25th of April this year.<\/p>\n

The aforementioned plan will promote national writers and authors, as well as others from the Community of Portuguese Speaking Countries (CPLP), due to historical and brotherly ties, with a view to building knowledge and training world citizens.<\/p>\n

World Portuguese Language Day<\/p>\n

In a joint note, the Ministries of Education and Foreign Affairs recall the historical monitoring of the Portuguese language in international relations, since the 15th century.<\/p>\n

They reiterate that the language was used as an instrument of struggle for the liberation of peoples, currently becoming an instrument of struggle for the construction and political, socio-cultural and economic development of the country, in a way that is increasingly linked with the Khun, Va\u0301tua languages and bantu.<\/p>\n

They claim that for Angola, the Portuguese language is the official language, the mother tongue of some Angolans and the second language of most Angolans.<\/p>\n

They state that it also performs the function of a foreign language and, sometimes, of a host language, the latter function used in the reception of displaced populations.<\/p>\n

They confirm that from the point of view of international cooperation, Angola is a country that, within the framework of CPLP commitments, applies the principles of pluricentrism through technical, scientific, educational and cultural cooperation.<\/p>\n

The Portuguese language is spoken by more than 260 million people, in Angola, Brazil, Cape Verde, Guinea-Bissau, Mozambique, Portugal, Sa\u0303o Tome\u0301 and Pri\u0301ncipe, Equatorial Guinea, Timor-Leste and Macau.<\/p>\n
