'Peripheries' take centre stage: reinterpreted multilingual education works

Abstract

Written texts in ITM languages establish and develop a solid continuum of literacy practices. They also facilitate the best opportunities for successful second/third language acquisition. This gives school students the best possible chance to participate in local, regional and even international activities. This chapter points towards fruitful practices and discoveries, mutually enriching in the South, but also important for contemporary concerns of recent migration and urbanisation in the West/North.
