are also able to use Catalan in any social setting? Even the best educational system can't do that. We have to be committed to uphold the dominant states accountable. 1. We propose that dominant states are required to sign freedom pacts concerning linguistic legislation regarding minority languages in education. We need consistency and peace in the educational institutions in order to be able to devote ourselves to the real tasks and challenges of everyday life at school and to achieve success. 2. We propose that countries not only have to implement the linguistic human rights in the educational context, but that also take into account the implementation and use of the minorized languages in society. And if these human rights are not respected, there should be international mechanisms that convince or - if necessary - maybe force these states to do so. It shouldn’t be possible to spend resources, and then limit the actual possibilities of implementation of minorized languages. And it shouldn't be possible to destroy progress achieved in education in minority languages by disregarding the human rights of linguistic minorities in life outside the school. The job is far from over, just because the minorized languages are successfully taught. We invite the Special rapporteur on minority issues to visit Catalonia and assess the situation of the Catalan language in the education system, law enforcement, the judiciary and the public administration.
