Short Description:
\n<\/span>Canada and Nepal are home to great Indigenous linguistic and cultural diversity, in ways that enrich and strengthen both nations. In this richly illustrated and at times provocative presentation, I will make the case for the central role that First Nations and adivasi janajati languages have in the education, legal, administrative and cultural sectors of both nations. The presentation will move from specific, granular details to a review of policy, with ample opportunity for conversation and discussion.<\/span><\/h3>\n
