Native American language revitalization

Native American language revitalization involves efforts to preserve and restore indigenous languages that are endangered due to declining speakers and historical suppression. Communities and organizations create educational programs, develop written resources, and incorporate technology to encourage new learners. These initiatives aim to reconnect individuals with their cultural heritage and ensure the languages’ survival for future generations. Revitalization recognizes language as a vital part of identity and cultural continuity, emphasizing community-led efforts to empower speakers and promote linguistic diversity.
