Next up is Lil’watul Indigenous languages expert Dr. Lorna Wánosts’a7 Williams, with whom I’m not familiar at all - though I very much know the organizations she is connected to #WAVES2025
Calls on states to commit to full implementation of UNDRIP (particularly article 14), to work with Indigenous people to ensure funding is consistent, sustained and adequate, to integrate ILs into public life, to support IL education, and bridge the digital divide #WAVES2025
Chair de poule ce matin à #WAVES2025: the great #TomsonHighway on why soeaking many languages is like living in a house with more than one window…#kisâkihitin❤️

cool speakers at this morning’s plenary, including GG Mary Simon (who I admire a lot even if I’m equivocal about the office she holds) and UN Special Rapporteur on Indigenous Rights Dr. Albert K. Berume, whose speech is happening now #WAVES2025
Watching a screening of ‘Rhythms of the Land’ now since obviously I am drawn, mothlike, to anything with a music angle #WAVES2025 commissionforindigenouslanguages.ca/rhythms-of-t...
