Current projects

 

Here you can find ongoing language advocacy and awareness actions and initiatives organized by the Coalition and its member organizations, and ways to contribute to this work; as well as efforts from other people and organizations which are aligned with the Coalition's mission.

 

We are very much interested in sharing your work around:

​

  • Documenting and digitally preserving languages.

  • Developing teaching material to encourage new speakers to learn languages, especially Indigenous and endangered languages.

  • Translating important, critical information for linguistically and digitally marginalized groups.

  • Creating virtual communities of speakers by using online platforms to connect, promote and mobilize communities around linguistic and digital rights.

The Coalition recognizes the limitations of using English as the main language of communication. We also recognize the challenges and limitations of being an organization exclusively operated by volunteers, with limited capacity, and no funding sources. While we look into the best ways of working towards developing a strategy for multilingual engagement, all suggestions are welcome and appreciated. We thank you for your patience in the meantime.
 

If you know of someone who would like to join the Coalition for whom this is a barrier at the moment, please reach out to us so we can find a collaborative solution.
