THE LANGUAGE CONSERVANCY

BLOOMINGTON, IN

The Language Conservancy is a non-profit organization based in Bloomington, Indiana, dedicated to preserving and promoting endangered languages around the world. Founded in 2005, the organization works in collaboration with indigenous communities to document and revitalize their languages, which are at risk of disappearing due to a variety of factors such as globalization, cultural assimilation, and government policies.

The Language Conservancy's approach combines linguistics, anthropology, and technology to develop language materials and resources that are accessible and relevant to the communities they serve. This includes creating dictionaries, grammars, and language-learning software, as well as organizing immersion programs, workshops, and conferences.

The organization's work has had a significant impact on the preservation of endangered languages, with a particular focus on Native American and First Nations languages in North America. It has partnered with over 30 indigenous communities across the continent, working closely with language speakers, educators, and community leaders to develop sustainable language revitalization programs.

In addition to its language preservation efforts, The Language Conservancy also seeks to promote cultural awareness and understanding through its work. It advocates for the recognition and respect of indigenous languages and cultures, and works to raise awareness of the importance of language diversity in the world.
