indigenous languages in Bangladesh

There is a lack of recognition for Indigenous writers and publishers at national events like the Amar Ekushey Book Fair.

Where are indigenous women’s stories?

Indigenous women are read even less. There are multiple root causes–lack of editorial support for indigenous authors writing in their mother tongues, the predominance of oral traditions, gender inequality and bias.

The government must take steps to preserve near-extinct languages
