Date and Language Settings in Teams
The teams does not use windows date, Time and the language. I could not find anything to manage one user or whole organization's settings to set default language and time zone.

moses2023 There is no policy in Teams to set the region/language.
The setting is persisted locally on the client, in a file called desktop-config.json, while it's not supported it is possible to change the setting in the file e.g. Change Teams Language from PowerShell · GitHub
I would still be questioning why it's not right by default, it's not something that should need to be changed in bulk. Teams should detect the OS language as per Languages supported in Microsoft Teams for Education - Microsoft Support
