Confirmation of the activities of the organization at the regional, national or international level: | The Language Conservancy achieves its mission by providing urgently needed revitalization services and by supporting endangered indigenous languages through grants and technical assistance. The Language Conservancy also educates the public on the problem of language loss and the importance of language diversity through its fundraising and public relations work. There is still much work to be done before the public and world become aware of the extent of the language crisis, the urgent need for a solution, and the finality of their destruction if nothing is done. Public silence on language-loss will only conclude in a permanent silence for endangered languages. |
