O Ministério da Educação e a UNESCO celebraram a 21 de Fevereiro, no salão de Delta Nova, em Díli, o Dia Internacional da Língua Materna subordinado ao tema “Preservar a língua materna através do livro”.
O Ministro da Educação, Bendito Freitas, afirmou que “como país independente, temos a obrigação de promover os valores patrimoniais e culturais. Não podemos, na nossa política para a defesa e protecção dos valores culturais, esquecer que a língua materna faz parte da nossa identidade. Além disso, é através desta que nós, como seres humanos, estabelecemos os primeiros contactos com a comunidade até à integração na sociedade e no mundo, em que existe uma complexidade de conhecimento”.
“O Ministério da Educação apoia totalmente o uso da língua materna para servir de ponte e facilitar os alunos nos primeiros anos de escolaridade, nomeadamente ao nível pré-escolar e do ensino básico. Deste modo estabelece-se um fundamento sólido para a continuação dos seus estudos ao nível superior”, acrescentou o Ministro.
O Primeiro-Ministro, Kay Rala Xanana Gusmão, reforçou que “o uso da língua materna na educação é para facilitar a compreensão dos alunos em relação aos objectos ou conceitos na literacia e numeracia. Defendo a língua materna porque é este o nosso património e é através dele que mostramos ao mundo quem somos.”
Além dos supracitados, estiveram, também, presentes a Vice-Ministra do Ensino Básico, Dulce Soares; a Ministra da Solidariedade Social, Isabel Guterres; a Secretária de Estado da Arte e Cultura, Isabel Ximenes; o Presidente da Comissão F do Parlamento Nacional; representantes das ONGs nacionais e internacionais; os parceiros religiosos; o sindicato dos professores; representantes das línguas maternas; representantes da UNESCO e os estudantes da escola piloto de Rembor.
Dili Commemoration of International Mother Language Day 2013
Fri. 22 of February of 2013, 18:24hOn 21 February 2013 the Ministry of Education and UNESCO commemorated the International Mother Tongue Day at the Delta Nova Conference Hall in Dili under the theme: “Preserve Mother Tongue through Books”.
The Minister of Education, Bendito Freitas, stated that “as an independent State, we have the obligation to promote patrimonial and cultural values. In implementing our policy to defend and protect cultural values, we cannot forget that mother tongue is part of our identity. Moreover, it is through our mother tongue that we, as human beings, establish the initial contacts with the community until such time as we are integrated into society and the world, a stage where there is a complexity of knowledge.”
“The Ministry of Education fully supports the use of the mother tongue to serve as a bridge and facilitate the students during the initial years of scolarity, notably at the pre-school and basic education levels, thereby establishing a solid foundation for the children to pursue their studies at a higher level”, the Minister added.
The Prime Minister, Kay Rala Xanana Gusmão, stressed that #the use of the mother tongue in education aims at facilitating the understanding of the students insofar as the objects or concepts in literacy or numeracy are concerned. I advocate the use of the mother tongue because this is our heritage and it is through it that we show to the world what we really are.”
In addition to the Minister of Education and the Prime Minister, also in attendance were the Deputy Minister for Basic Education, Dulce Soares; the Minister for Social Solidarity, Isabel Guterres; the Secretary of State for Arts and Culture, Isabel Ximenes; the Chairman of the Commission F of the National Parliament; representatives of national and international NGOs; religious partners; the Teachers’ Union; representatives of mother tongues; representatives of UNESCO; and students from the Rembor pilot-school.
