Join the FOM@PLAY Erasmus+ Summer School 2025 – Exploring Freedom of Movement through Language and Experience: 3 – 4 June 2025
This free event offers a valuable opportunity to reflect on the meaning of migration and freedom of movement in the European Union today, through the lens of the real experiences of EU citizens living and working across borders.
This summer school is a central event of the FOM@PLAY Erasmus+ projecthttp://www.um.es/fomatplay, which investigates mobility through the rights, aspirations, and futures of European citizens.
A key outcome of this project is a multilingual corpus—in Spanish, French, and Italian—that gathers personal accounts of mobility across Europe. These narratives serve as a rich foundation for exploring how corpus linguistics can illuminate societal challenges, particularly in relation to migration, identity, and EU citizenship.
The event brings together students, citizens, and researchers to reflect on the role of language and discourse in shaping understandings of mobility, belonging, and fundamental rights within the EU.
Program Highlights:
* Testimonies from EU citizens who have experienced cross-border mobility, including the challenges posed by Brexit.
* Dialogue spaces, interactive workshops, and creative sessions designed to spark critical thinking and collaborative exploration.
* A focus on how language and personal narratives reveal tensions, hopes, and possibilities within the EU’s freedom of movement framework.
