Universal Networking Digital Language Foundation
We are a non-profit NGO based in Geneva, Switzerland since 2001. We are developing and promoting the Universal Networking Language (UNL), an artificial language created to represent and process information across language barriers. Our goal is to facilitate communication and access to knowledge for all cultures and peoples in the world.
Today, more than half of the world's population is excluded from the digital society, having neither access to the information nor speaking one of its dominant languages. We believe that the UNL can play a key role in eradicating this inequality.
To this effect, we mobilize a global community of more than 1400 researchers and developers who encode natural languages into UNL, or help developing the UNL software infrastructure at the UNLweb, the online working platform of the UNL System (www.unlweb.net)
The UNL is designed to be able to encode any language in the world by integrating their grammatical and semantic components. As of today, close to 125 languages are being encoded into UNL. Among which major languages such as English, Russian and Arabic are included; as well as so called "minority" languages such as Telugu, Kannada or Bambara; and also ancient languages such as Latin, Ancient Greek and Sanskrit.
The UNLweb is free and open to anyone interested in joining the UNL Programme and contributing to reduce language barriers and strengthen cross-cultural communication through UNL.
Join now and become a paid freelance linguist encoding your natural language(s) into UNL: http://bit.ly/1eISp1b
We also offer internships all year long for students in language sciences or computer development related fields.
