Week of the Italian Language in the World in Dublin

ItalishMagazine opens a brand new category: Italia in Irlanda – Italy in Ireland, introducing the events in Dublin of the 13th Week of the Italian Language in the World  – 13ma Settimana della Lingua Italiana nel mondo.

The Week of the Italian Language in the World is promoted by the Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, under the Patronage of the President of the Republic of Italy. And Dublin is going to be invaded, between October 14th and 20th, by a large number of events!

Since its first edition in 2001, the Settimana della Lingua Italiana nel Mondo has grown in importance over the years. Each year it addresses a specific theme, selected by the Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

This year the theme is:

Research, Discovery, Innovation: Italian Expertise

Seminars, study presentations, symposiums and concerts will take place during the week. Most of the events will be hosted in the Italian Institute of Culture, Pavilion Hall, 11 Fitzwilliam Square East, Dublin 2.

Two events will take place in external venues:
