Official Multilingualism

Official Multilingualism is a policy framework within language planning whereby a state institutionally recognizes and employs two or more languages as official for governmental, legal, and administrative purposes, thereby distinguishing it from monolingual official language regimes and from non-institutionalized multilingual practices.
