The network Rouedad ar Brezhoneg is formed by fifty associations. The collective dennounced yesterday the lack of political will to keep afloat the teaching of the Breton language. And in the front line of their recriminations: the majority in the Regional Council of Brittany. The Regional Council of Brittany adopted on 14 December 2018 "the main orientations of a new regional policy" for the Breton language. The opening statement of the validated document indicates that "the objective of the Region is to contribute to the creation of the bilingual society that is desired by Bretons and Bretons". It is thus specified that: "The Region proposes, within the framework of the new policy for the Breton language which will materialize in 2019, to continue and amplify its current action". The Brittany region had also announced the development in 2019 of an "action plan" for the Breton language.
The 2019 budget voted on February 8 for the Breton language remained stable compared to that of previous years, or € 2.24 per capita. "Rouedad ar brezhoneg" has therefore undertaken the realization of a "Plan of Action" to propose in a concrete way an application of the orientations decided by the Regional Council. Nearly 80 action sheets have been drawn up by the competent associations in order to specify the objectives, the means to achieve them, the expected result and the timetable to be implemented.
We propose to the Regional Council this action plan as a basis for the implementation of its language policy. These proposals are also intended to enlighten the State services and the Regional Council of Brittany for the drafting of the new "Specific Convention for the transmission of the languages of Brittany and the development of their use in everyday life" which must enter into force from 2020.
