From Mexico to Australia, Indigenous youth reimagine the internet for their languages · Global Voices

There are some 7,000 languages in the world, but only 10 dominate the internet. English leads, with 25.9 percent of online content, followed by Chinese, Spanish, Arabic, Portuguese, Indonesian, French, Japanese, Russian, and German. Facing this reality, Indigenous youth from Mexico to Australia are carving out spaces for their languages on the web.

Forty percent of all languages are at “some level of endangerment,” according to UNESCO, and Indigenous languages are particularly at risk, as hegemonic languages permeate education, governments, and media worldwide.

Street Art in Köln-Ehrenfeld

Street art is really life affirming and wonderful…

Senioren um die Welt

Street Art ist eine äusserst facettenreiche Kunstform, die sich stets weiterentwickelt und gewissermassen neu erfindet.

Es ist eine Ausdrucksform, die das Leben der Betrachter sehr bereichert. Street Art spielt sich auf der Strasse ab, der öffentliche Raum ist das Medium. Wichtige Aspekte dieser Kunstform sind, dass sie nicht nur für jeden leicht verständlich ist, sondern auch dass sie für jeden zugänglich ist.
