The point of departure of this chapter is that CLIL in schools and universities, in any of itsvaried and multiple forms, can have an educational foundation aimed at fostering students’intercultural and citizenship development. Meyer et al. (2015) contribute an educationalperspective that partially addresses this expectation through what they call ‘a pluriliteraciesapproach’ to CLIL. This approach highlights the content (subject matter) and communication(language) continua, the importance of the integration, and learners’ pluriliteraciesdevelopment as citizens.
