Montreal, a city known for its linguistic diversity, offers numerous language programs. It is also one of the best student cities in the world, welcoming students with unique experiences and needs in terms of language education. Teachers, researchers, students and other language education stakeholders live and breathe this multilingual reality, which constantly evolves. These evolutions require constant updating of knowledge to ensure that research and practice in language education meets the needs of the learner population.

In this multilingual context, it is important to:

- Diversify our teaching to respond to a variety of linguistic profiles
- Encourage collaboration between the different stakeholders responsible for shaping language policy
- Bear in mind the specific needs of our students

Taking the time to collaborate and understand these issues is important. The objective of this symposium is to create a common space to reflect and to share in order to further our understanding of additional language education in an increasingly multilingual society.

The conference aims to explore themes and share research results relating to the learning and teaching of additional languages in multilingual contexts. Possible subjects are:
- Teaching approaches in multicultural and multilingual contexts
- Cognitive dimensions of additional language learning
- Learning strategies in multilingual contexts
- Influence of already-acquired languages on additional language learning
- Affective individual differences (e.g., motivation, emotions)
- Teacher and learner beliefs
- Creation of pedagogical materials
- Curriculum Development
- Educational technologies and second language teaching
