A colorful orange flyer with images of abstract mountains at the bottom. Text at the top reads: "Stories from the Heart: Community Language Projects from Ready to Revitalize". A cartoon of a green bird is flying past the text. Below is a photo of Gibrilla Kamara wearing a white shirt and blue tie. Next to photo is the text "Gibrilla Kamara, Society for Indigenous Languages, Cultures, and Communities of Sierra Leone (SILCC): Restoring the Roots of Indigenous Languages in Sierra Leone". Below that is text: "Gibrilla Kamara will discuss the revitalization of the Mani and Limba languages in Sierra Leone. He will also discuss how the Society for Indigenous Languages, Communities, and Cultures (SILCC) is restoring the unique approaches their ancestors have used to protect and preserve the language, culture, and forest for generations." and the text "April 15, 9:00 am Pacific". At the bottom is a QR code with the link to register and the ELP logo.

Starting on April 15, join us each month to hear real-life stories of language revitalization around the world!

The first speaker will be Gibrilla Kamara, sharing about his work to revitalize Limba and Mani, and protect and restore forests, in Sierra Leone. 🌳
