Dlaczego Niemcy i Polacy po II wojnie światowej sprzeczali się o Mazurów. Dlaczego ich język drażnił i Polaków, i Niemców? Jak dziś promować kulturę mazurską? I jakie jest mazurskie słówko na dziś. #PulsEurope #wyborcza wyborcza.pl/podcast/0,17...

It has been a truly great experience to work with multilingual students in the language portraits workshop in the Central School in Port Vila, Efate! We have learned a lot how children who participated navigate the linguistic diversity of their families & communities #MULTILING-HIST @erc.europa.eu

Another inspiring and entertaining annual conference of the Association of Nahua Scholars, this time at @KansasUniv Happy to have shared our research on the neocolonial origin of the concept of “Classical Nahuatl”, school violence toward Indigenous children and female agency in Nahuatl petitions

There is no contradiction between research and activism and Indigenous languages should be used in science and science education. A great plenary by Santiago Gualapura on Kichwa at SAIL2025 conference @uarizona.bsky.social l

Starting an Otomi language revitalization project in Ixtenco, Tlaxcala, coordinated by Cornelio Hernández & supported by our Center for Research and Practice in Cultural Continuity & the Foundation Institute “Artes Liberales”. With less than 20 speakers left, this is the challenge of huge urgency.

“We decided to do this project is because of the growing application of AI and machine ... We wanted to ensure that low-resourced dialects of low-resourced languages are also represented in technology."

#IWD2025 is an important day to celebrate women's social, economic, cultural & political achievements, but it's also a good occasion to call for gender equality. The #SheFigures report on R&I describes the challenges women researchers face, but also highlights ideas to help them. 🔗 buff.ly/3EJDkB4

As part of the #faberllull Olot residence organized by #Linguapax in collaboration with our Center the participants shared poetry and songs in Amazigh, Aranes, Catalan, Dzukish, Kashubian, Lemko, Silesian and Wymysiöeryś Gràcies a la comunitat d'Olot per rebre'ns! youtu.be/cWGrHAld8nw

For the first time the Mother Tongue Day in Wilamowice was celebrated in the Muzeum fu Wymysiöejer Kultür. The highlight of the program was the new theatrical play in Wymysiöeryś focusing on the humorously depicting the redemption of Wilamowice from serfdom in 1808.

Join us for the celebrations of the Mother Tongue Day in the Muzeum fu Wymysiöejer Kultür in Wilamowice! Minority history workshop, exhibition tour in Wymysiöeryś, a recital in several minoritized languages, a new play by the revitheatralization group "Ufa fisa" and much more!

Questioning colonial & nation-state narratives is essential for uncovering silenced histories and perspectives of Indigenous & minoritized groups and how their histories matter to the present. Join us today for a decolonial grassroots microhistory workshop! #MULTILING-HIST @erc.europa.eu project

An emic & decolonial approach to the history of the Kashubs is behind a new book “Dzieje Kaszubów/Dzeje Kaszëbów” by Kashubian historians Michał Hinc & Adam Lubocki. We need more historical studies that question the dominant nation-state narrative. Join us for the book presentation today at 18:30!

On the International Day of Women and Girls in Science, we celebrate all female researchers who push the frontiers of knowledge! Introducing @noeliaferruz.bsky.social - a chemist @crg.eu aiming to design a digital mind capable of explaining its reasoning. 👉 aiproteindesign.com

Scientists, given more time and flexibility, often stumble upon unexpected discoveries—like Alexander Fleming, who saw a mould had killed the bacteria he was growing, paving the way for antibiotics. Recent study analysed such findings—more of them than you'd expect. 👉 www.nature.com/articles/d41...

Dziś pożegnaliśmy Panią Helenę Biba, Płaćnik-Helćü, najstarszą Wilamowiankę, która odeszła od nas w wieku 102 lat. Nigdy nie zapomnimy, czego się od Pani nauczyliśmy. Wjyr wan ni ny fergasa, wo Jyr yns hot gyłjyt. Śłöf ym rü!
