      Bilingualism in Childhood

      What are the reasons for parents to raise their child bilingual?

      Bilingualism is a common phenomenon, particularly in regions such as Africa and Asia, where many individuals navigate multiple languages in their daily lives. This project report explores the intricacies of speech science and linguistics as they relate to bilingual speakers, examining the cognitive and social implications of being fluent in more than one language. The research highlights the significance of bilingualism in communication and its impact on identity and culture.

      This book assembles the revised papers presented to an international working conference on international waste policy convened by the Environmental Law Network International (ELNI) in May 1991 in Germany. The focus is placed on EC, national and regional waste management law, and implementation and practice in 15 countries of Europe. This is supplemented by analyses of relevant organisations and rich statistical material; thus offers a unique comparative overview. The pan-European perspective shows a serious risk of «eco-dumping», i. e. the export of waste to countries with lower disposal standard. On the EC level, the conference was presented with substantial evidence of non-implementation of existing legislation in Member States. Therefore «global domestic policy» must become the guiding principle of national and international regulation and one of the main tasks of environmental organizations. In this spirit, it was agreed that in future a Europe-wide continued exchange of information and experience shall take place between the NGOs in the field of waste.
