Networking
Our network includes academics, practitioners, organizations and development professionals who are committed to research and policy change that decolonizes languages and learning and provides real opportunities for speakers of non-dominant languages to gain quality education at the primary level and beyond.

We will connect you with qualified local, regional and international specialists who can provide technical assistance in language-in-education policy and practices. We prioritize local and Indigenous experts and NGOs whose skills are most relevant to the needs of a project or program.
