Happy International Mother Language Day
Happy International Mother Language Day (21st February).
I have encouraged my team to take time today to read this wonderful paper titled "Mother tongue as a universal human right" that contains Shetlandic poetry by Christine De Luca, Edinburgh Makar (poet laureate) for the City of Edinburgh (2014-2017). Her inspiring paper will soon be officially published as part of our Universal Declaration of Human Rights special issue of International Journal of Speech-Language Pathology.
