PROJECTS

Multilingualism Education Project (MEP)


MEP is based on the multilingual language policy and plan approved by Senate and Council. The University Language Policy takes as its starting point the need to prepare students to participate fully in a multilingual society, where multilingual proficiency and awareness are essential. For more information on this project, contact Assoc Prof Mbulungeni Madiba.

MEP was responsible for the launch and the roll out of the Masithethe isiXhosa (Xhosa Communication) course for staff and students. Since MEP was launched in the second half of 2006, about 260 staff members have participated in the course. The course for students was piloted in 2007 with Law students and students involved in the Social Responsiveness Group.
