| Abstract: |
The article focuses on the 2026 volume of *SCOLT Dimensions*, the official peer-reviewed journal of the Southern Conference on Language Teaching (SCOLT), which centers on plurilingual language learning from primarily European perspectives. It highlights the journal’s aim to bridge European and U.S. understandings of plurilingualism—defined as an individual’s ability to use multiple languages—and its distinction from related terms such as multilingualism and translanguaging. The issue features contributions from European and Canadian scholars addressing language policies, teaching practices, and innovative curricula that promote plurilingual competence, intercultural understanding, and inclusive language education. Additionally, it discusses efforts to democratize plurilingual research and resources, emphasizing equity, diversity, inclusion, and decoloniality in language education.
