Basque Country

Bilingualism Matters opened in Vitoria-Gasteiz, Basque Country (Spain), in March 2015 as part of the EU funded AThEME project . The branch is hosted by the Bilingual Mind Group at the University of the Basque Country (UPV/EHU). The Basque Country branch aims to share evidence-based information about multilingualism through outreach work and dissemination of research results, allowing people to make informed-decisions about bilingualism in their personal and professional lives.
