A key component of this vision is the <strong>Ulysseus +2 Language Programme<\/strong>, one of the largest language initiatives among European University Alliances. The programme offers virtual courses in eleven languages, including Spanish, French, Italian, German, Slovak, Finnish, English, Arabic, Chinese, Russian and Montenegrin. It also features the world&rsquo;s first online Montenegrin language course.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:35px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Lingua-Culture Approach<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Workshop participants emphasized the importance of integrating a \u00ab\u00a0lingua-culture\u00a0\u00bb approach, which recognizes language as inseparable from cultural understanding.
