Language preservation efforts
Language preservation efforts aim to maintain and revive languages that are at risk of disappearing, often because speakers are aging or shifting to more dominant languages. These efforts include documenting languages through recordings and written records, teaching them in schools, encouraging communities to use their languages at home and in public, and creating resources like apps or books. The goal is to keep these languages vibrant and accessible for future generations, ensuring cultural diversity and the unique worldviews embedded within each language are protected and celebrated.
