Lietuvos Respublikos ambasada Kaire/Embassy of Lithuania in Cairo

Lithuanian popular music has always been more than entertainment – it has been a voice of freedom, identity, and creativity. From the underground rock festivals of the 1980s to today’s thriving music scene, it tells the story of a nation finding its sound.

This two-part series explores that journey: Part 1 looks at the roots and rise of Lithuanian music after Independence, while Part 2 highlights the key figures and spaces shaping its future.

Lithuania to roll out digital euro currency by 2027.

As the European Central Bank prepares to be ready by 2030, Lithuania is among the first in Europe to take action.
The digital euro will reduce dependence on international payment schemes and offer reliable transactions even offline or during disruptions.
Once adopted across the eurozone, the digital euro will support a more integrated, competitive and resilient European economy.

🌍 | Kuo pasitikite – mitais ar mokslu?

👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Mus dažnai stabdo mitai:

❌ „dvikalbiam vaikui sunkiau mokykloje“;
❌ „kalbos klaidos – kalbos sutrikimo požymis“;
❌ „namuose reikia kalbėti tik ta pačia kalba kaip ir mokykloje“;
❌ „vaikas negali mokytis dviejų kalbų vienu metu“.

🔬 Moksliniai tyrimai rodo priešingai – vaikai gali sėkmingai išmokti kelias kalbas vienu metu, o kalbų maišymas ar klaidos yra natūrali raidos dalis.

🏫 Lituanistinės mokyklos tampa tiltu tarp tėvų ir vaikų – jos padeda puoselėti lietuvių kalbą ir užtikrintai žengti pirmyn.
