What will happen in your session?

During our session we will present the Activismo Lenguas (Language Activism) project focusing on indigenous language digital activism in Latin America. Originally convened by Rising Voices, the digital inclusion initiative of Global Voices, the project has been facilitating local and regional networks of indigenous youth that are leveraging the power of the internet to to produce digital content in their own languages, in an effort to create a more linguistically diverse web.

What is the goal or outcome of your session?

We will share our experiences participating in the Mozilla Open Leaders program that focused on developing the Activismo Lenguas peer learning and exchange platform for communities participating in an open and linguistically diverse web. The objective of the session will be to share lessons learned, challenges we face, and to build a model of collaboration between indigenous and non-indigenous language speakers to enable us to achieve linguistic diversity on the web.

Hola Moni, Eduardo and Rodrigo! I'm happy to see your submission. Can you please share with us a rough breakdown of what you will do in the session.

Also, have you thought about a specific activity to make it interactive and participatory?

Saludos!

Hola Caro! Yes, this is the planning: https://docs.google.com/document/d/12Bl6R5JdWKWWnRfHT21UoEiGpYE7M0NqUfMNqys_fIc/edit

In relation to participation, we think that in principle it will be a presentation and then a discussion and participation table through guiding questions that will be distributed by group.

Saludos :)
