全球语言教育共同体倡议（北京2021）
Global Language Education Community Initiative (Beijing 2021)
语言是文明传承的载体，是文明交流的桥梁，是文明进步的动力。全球70多亿人每天使用数千种语言交流沟通，传承创新。然而，伴随着全球化、信息化、智能化的加速发展，人类语言正面临前所未有的挑战，一些语言在全球化中消亡，一些语言在信息化中落后，一些语言在智能化中停滞不前。全球语言教育出现了资源分布不平衡、人才供需不平衡、区域发展不平衡等突出问题。新时代呼唤全球大学秉承共同体理念，推进全球语言教育合作。
Language preserves civilizations, bridges the exchanges between them, and fuels their progress. Each day, more than 7 billion people across the world use thousands of languages for exchanges, communication, inheritance and innovation. However, as the world embraces accelerated globalization, digitalization and smart transformation, human languages are facing unprecedented challenges. Some are disappearing due to globalization; some are falling behind in the digital world; and others have ceased evolving in the smart technology era. Language education faces major problems including unequal distribution of resources, imbalance between supply and demand of skilled personnel, and regional disparities worldwide. The new era calls on universities everywhere to adopt the notion of a global community and promote global cooperation on language education.
