Language dymamics: ~ 5000 - 5500 languages in the world

80 % are no-state, minority languages

75% are threatened or in danger

About 8-10 % disappear every year

In 100 years about 2500 will disappear (50 %)

Source: « Halte à la mort des langues » Claude Hagège

When a language disappears, a whole culture vanishes, with its unique,collective, unrepeateble view of reality.

Only 10% are active in the Internet space(40 languages for 99,3 % of users)


Learning a new language is opening a window to other cultures, it is a right for our students

and a benefit for the whole community
