Set up in 2005, Linguamón – House of Languages is a governmental body formed by Barcelona City Council and the Government of Catalonia. Our mission is to familiarise the general public with the world of languages, to raise awareness of the importance of preserving linguistic diversity, to portray that diversity in a positive light and to convey the tremendous potential that languages and their communities of speakers have to offer.

We also provide specialised services, through which we carry out language-based initiatives with a view to contributing to enhancing social and economic conditions. Our models of managing multilingualism are intended to have a positive effect on a country’s social cohesion, competitiveness and economy, as well as on the social and professional development of its inhabitants.

Linguamón – House of Languages aims to contribute to establishing Catalonia as an international benchmark in terms of managing multilingualism in societies and new technologies.
