"We Kenyans, are Linguistic Chameleons" with Njeri Wangari

A podcast about how languages relate to each other in today’s world by Avishta Seeras and Filip Noubel.

In this podcast, we hear stories of those who make language their journey of discovery, reclaimed origins and cultural pride, fair coexistence, equal access to technology and information, decolonization and inclusion. We discuss how languages borrow from each other to enrich their worldview, evolve constantly and never completely die. We learn from initiatives that support a multilingual world where every language is celebrated and recognized as invaluable in our ecosystem of cultures.
