40% of the world's languages are disappearing.
We empower communities around the world to teach, learn and sustain local languages with digital courses and tools.
We celebrate language vitality and intergenerational knowledge, connecting youth and families with ancestral wisdom.
Values & Vision
Respect & Collaboration
We value the rights and traditions of others. We approach our relationships as guests, recognizing the leadership of our partners.
Empowerment & Ownership
We believe that Indigenous languages and the materials created for those languages belong to the community of ancestors, speakers, and descendants of those languages. We seek to cooperatively develop resources for each community to self-determine the future of their language.
Diversity & Inclusion
We recognize the value and importance of each language for their communities. We believe every language strengthens humanity as a whole. Each and every community deserves the opportunity to teach, learn, and sustain their language.
Technology & Community Access
Communities should have access to technologies and support that assist their language journeys in ways that reflect their cultural values. We believe technology should reflect the community’s culture, practices, and ways of knowing.
Vision
We envision a world where all communities have the resources and opportunities to reclaim, strengthen, and revitalize their endangered languages.
