Abstract

The paper aims at providing information on today language policies in Ukraine. Until 2018 the school system in Ukraine has continued a tradition of running schools with minorities’ languages as main languages of instruction. 

Since 2010, the Romanian non-governmental organization (NGO) The Peace Action, Training and Research Institute of Romania (PATRIR) has engaged in an initiative to assess the context and later to pilot a multilingual education (MLE) project in the Autonomous Republic of Crimea first and, from 2014, in three Ukrainian regions: Odessa, Chernivtsi and Transcarpathia. Project was transferred to the Ministry, which is developing it further as a state-wide experiment “Building Multilingualism of Children and Students: Progressive European Ideas in the Ukrainian Context”.

The paper aims at analysing existing conditions, challenges, and needs for the effective implementation of MLE in Ukraine.

Keyphrases: language policy, multilingual education, teacher professional development
