Native Language Revitalization

Native Language Revitalization involves efforts to restore and promote indigenous languages that have declined or are endangered. It includes actions like teaching the language in schools, creating learning resources, encouraging use within communities, and documenting it for future generations. The goal is to preserve cultural identity, strengthen community bonds, and ensure these languages continue to be spoken and valued, despite past efforts that led to their decline. This process recognizes language as a vital part of cultural heritage and strives to re-establish its use in everyday life.
