Grant Overview

Alberta is home to a diverse range of Indigenous languages, with 64 different languages spoken across the province. However, many of these languages are considered endangered, with 90% of Indigenous languages in Canada at risk of being lost. The Indigenous Language digital platform aims to preserve and promote Indigenous languages in Alberta, featuring interactive language learning tools and cultural resources. Who Should Apply in Alberta? Eligible applicants include Indigenous communities, language experts, and educational institutions with a proven track record of language preservation and promotion. Applications require a detailed plan for platform development, including partnerships with Indigenous communities and a clear assessment of language needs. Alberta's unique cultural context, with a strong Indigenous presence, requires a tailored approach to language preservation. Unlike neighboring British Columbia, Alberta's Indigenous Language platform prioritizes the development of language learning tools that are tailored to the specific needs of Indigenous communities. The province's rural and urban areas will benefit from targeted investments in language preservation and promotion. The program's success will be measured by the number of languages supported, the number of users engaged, and the overall improvement in language proficiency across the province. Alberta's Indigenous communities, such as those in the Treaty 6 and Treaty 7 territories, will be key partners in the development and delivery of the language platform. By supporting Indigenous language preservation initiatives, Alberta can promote cultural diversity and understanding.
