Multilingual Early Language Transmission (MELT) - Mercator ...

The Welsh Language Board promotes and facilitates the use of the Welsh language. It cooperates
with several public sector bodies, private businesses and voluntary organisations.
In the MELT project there is special co-operation with the Welsh-medium pre-school
organisation Mudiad Meithrin. The Welsh Language Board is the lead body in the
establishment of the Network to Promote Linguistic Diversity.

The Regional Council of Brittany is responsible for the implementation of the region’s
linguistic policy regarding the Breton language. Therefore it develops pedagogical tools in
association with the educational authority. It works closely together with Breton
organisations like Divskouarn (association of day-care centres, also a partner), Diwan
(immersion schools), Dihun (Catholic bilingual schools) and Divyezh (public bilingual schools).

Divskouarn is a non-profit organisation that works on a local level on the awareness and the
structuring of bilingual day-centres. Divskouarn was officially recognised as full partner of
the partnership at a later stage (approval by the Commission in August 2010), though they
have been involved from the application phase onwards.
