The Mayan Languages Preservation and Digitization Project is an open-source language digitization initiative created for and by Mayan Language Professionals in Guatemala and throughout North and Central America. We engage with academic professionals in anthropology, linguistics, cultural and area studies, and computer sciences to provide online services and learning with a goal of preserving Mayan languages and cultures. We are specifically dedicated to collaboration with Mayan language speakers who share our desire to ensure long-term survival of the many vibrant and evolving Indigenous languages in Guatemala and its surrounding regions. We maintain that the soul of a culture exists through and by language and invite all who wish to contribute to the preservation of Mayan languages to share in their love and knowledge of the soul of the Mayan cultures.
We honor and value the critical role each Mayan speaker has in shaping this project. By sharing your unique linguistic knowledge, you're not only strengthening your community's access to essential resources such as education, healthcare, and law, but you're also sharing the beauty of your languages and culture with the world. This is your platform, your heritage, and your voice resonating globally.
We stand with you in the belief that language rights are human rights. The Mayan Languages Preservation Project reaffirms this truth. Together, we're not just preserving languages, but acknowledging, celebrating, and sharing the invaluable cultural wealth embodied in them. We affirm our activism and vision of equality for all humanity by engaging in the struggle to ensure that speakers of all languages have equal access to speak, to learn, to write, and to express themselves freely in the language of their choice.
