The Oxford German Network launched its website on 26 September 2012, European Day of Languages.



http://www.oxford-german-network.ox.ac.uk



The network is an initiative of the Faculty of Medieval and Modern Languages at the University of Oxford, with the support of the Founding Partners Jesus College, Oxford, Magdalen College School, Oxford, and BMW Group Plant Oxford. It is designed to encourage and promote the study and enjoyment of German-language culture in the Oxford area and beyond, and will work closely with schools of all types as well as university departments, organisations and companies at a local and national level.



Alongside the website, the network's core activities will include facilitating workshops and events for learners of German and running a national competition: the Oxford German Olympiad.
