Preserve Your Language's Legacy in the Arctic World Archive

Supported by our foundation

Submit a compelling statement on why your language deserves preservation, and your submission could be selected for permanent safeguarding.

The chosen language will receive 20GB of storage in the Arctic World Archive vault, ensuring its digital preservation for future generations, – as part of the Deposit Ceremony on April 9th 2025, on Svalbard.

The chosen language will be announced at the Endangered Languages webinar on 11 March 2025, 12:00 (CET).
