Every community’s journey is unique. Goals may vary. Approaches may differ. Timelines may differ. Yet most revitalization efforts share a common aspiration: To ensure that future generations have opportunities to learn, speak, understand, and carry their language forward. Everything else contributes to this larger objective. Recordings. Stories. Curriculum. Technology. Publishing. Governance. Capacity building. These are all means to an end. The ultimate measure of success is whether the language becomes stronger and more accessible to those who will inherit it. That is the goal that connects every revitalization effort. And it is the goal that continues to guide the development of Language Cloud.
