2022-2032 International Decade of Indigenous Languages (IDIL)

Indigenous peoples are not only leaders in protecting the environment, but
their languages represent complex systems of knowledge and communication
and should therefore be recognized as a strategic national resource for
sustainable development, peacebuilding and reconciliation.

Indigenous languages also promote local cultures, customs and values which
have endured for thousands of years. Indigenous languages add to the rich
tapestry of global cultural diversity. Without them, the world would be a
poorer place.

The IDIL2022-2032 will help promote and protect Indigenous languages and
improve the lives of those who speak and sign them and will contribute to
achieving the objectives set out in the United Nations Declaration on the
Rights of Indigenous Peoples.
