Abstract (up to 300 words to describe your proposal)
In recent months, I have been working with Eddie Avile, director of Rising Voices, a program of the organisation Global Voices, in the development of a digital activism toolkit to inspire and support indigenous language speakers and allies in their revitalisation efforts. The toolkit has been commissioned by UNESCO with the aim of releasing it in time for the celebration of the International Decade of Indigenous Languages 2022-32. In this presentation I will present the main components of the toolkit.
