Many Languages One World 2015-Adelphi and the United Nations

I want to share with you the photos and links to the event: Many Languages One World, 2015 held at the United Nations and Adelphi.

Dr. Ana Simón-Alegre from our Department was the professor from the Spanish Group. She had 12 students from Brazil, Haiti, France, Canada, Belgium, Austria, Cote d'ivory and Netherlands. The group was amazing. They spoke to the UN Assemble.
