The Universala Esperanto Asocio (UEA, the international Esperanto association) is celebrating the Day of Europe today with live Esperanto briefings and talks. This is a continuation of the on-going #MondaFest2020.
Silver lining talk here, but one good thing of the current way of doing things is all the online access to Esperanto speakers. For a language lover & learner, this really is beneficial. The talk I'm listening to now, along with many, many more, are all on UEA's Youtube channel UEAviva.
And tomorrow UEA will be celebrating the Day of Africa, so I'll have another opportunity to listen to Esperanto speakers.
Which reminds me, silver lining part du: many academic associations have migrated their annual conferences online. In some instances, the conferences are free. I've already signed up for a few: Slavic Linguistics Society; the Foundation for Endangered Languages; an Interlinguistics Symposium; Mars Society. Not sure I can make all of them, maybe just a lecture here or there, but that's okay. Learning is learning.
