Research network

International network

The project The Spanish in Europe is an international, interdisciplinary, and collaborative network integrated by 11 research teams distributed in 49 countries. More than 70 researchers collaborate in order to analyze the demolinguistic reality of Spanish in Europe and, for the first time, create a cuantitative description of the spaces of Spanish and Spanish-speakers throughout the continent.
