Caracas, May 10 (Prensa Latina) Venezuelan experts and officials
supported by the UN Children´s Fund (UNICEF) will meet in Maracaibo on
Thursday to revitalize the "Anu" culture and language.

Indigenous communitarian promoters, teachers and other officials of the
Education Ministry and the Venezuelan Central and Zuli universities
will converge at this important meeting.

The preservation and recovery of the "Anu" culture and language are part
of the great national efforts in the field of Bilingual and
Intercultural Education.

This process of revitalization includes the development of actions to
contribute with the linguistic training of professionals and the
creation of didactic aids and methods to be used at classrooms.

Thus, the process becomes perfect opportunity to open new spaces for the
interchange among the communitarian factors, main promoters of the
initiative.
