Found in Translation: Lingua Cafe Chats 💬
Between 2021 and 2022, Lingua Cafe has connected community members from the digital rights, open technology and internet freedom to give and take languages. The LC monthly online sessions promoted Arabic, English, Spanish, French, Portuguese, and more, and were co-facilitated with participants.
LC's peer learning was also unique experience to leverage the knowledge around our different cultures and backgrounds. The language exchange brought us closer together by talking about different topics, such as sports, culture, festivities, and food.
In 2023 LC took a step back to build upon its past experiences and rethink its contribution as a space for Networking, Language Advocacy, Language Skill Building, Language Inclusion and Equity.
This last semester of the year we are organising a series of chat-based community learning sessions on our LC MatterMost channel. We will invite special guests to talk about issues such as: a) language translations fostering communities of learning; b) digital technologies enhancing language inclusion; and c) collective efforts and overlooked voices in language inclusion.
Join the launch of our first LC chat on July 19th 3pm UTC at LC MatterMost channel.
Laura Vidal will share about her background in language inclusion and experiences through podcasts and MozFest. Laura has been working on language inclusion with Mozilla Festival since 2021. She’s also a doctor in informal learning, specialized in online communities and intercultural exchange.
