Language technology infrastructures in support to multilingualism

The challenges of multilingualism are many, and needs are important, both in Europe and internationally. Language Technologies can help to meet those needs, but necessitate developing appropriate infrastructures and generating the resources which are mandatory to conduct research for the different languages. Some programs support this area, but suffer from a lack of scale, continuity and cohesion. The effort deserves to be coordinated between nations and international organizations in order to facilitate multilingualism in Europe and globally.
