6 What brought us here!? Key idea in the FNBE – ECML collaboration: to help develop language policies (both ways!) FREPA /CARAP was one of the most outstanding ECML projects in 2008 - 2011; FNBE saw its potential in developing the languages curricula for basic and upper secondary general education 2012 onwards: We wanted to place more emphasis on teaching /learning about cultural diversity as part of all subjects but – we also needed a more palatable version of the rather complex original version; Oulu knowing about FREPA was ready to work on a Finnish adaptation – and here we are to test it!
