What impact did YLC! have on other European countries, such as Austria, that were not directly involved in the project?
Austria was represented in the project solely by me as an individual, not by an institution. This direct involvement allowed the project results to be disseminated more quickly and widely, generating considerable interest.

What has to be done to further promote HLE in your country?
HLE is part of the national school system in Austria, as it is in Sweden and Finland. However, what is truly lacking is the opportunity to obtain formal academic training specifically as an HLE teacher.

Is there anything else you would like to add regarding the project?
It was great to see all of us develop in the field of HLE, and not only us developing the teachers.
