Summary, etc In preparation of celebrating the International Decade of Indigenous Languages as declared by UNESCO from 2022-2032, a global task force was created to prepare a global action plan with a view to ensure indigenous people's rights to preserve, revitalize, and promote their languages and mainstream linguistic diversity and multilingualism aspects into the sustainable development efforts.<br/><br/>Prof. Ramesh C. Gaur, Head, Kala Nidhi, and Dean, Indira Gandhi National Centre for the Arts (IGNCA), was nominated by the Government of India to represent India in the UNESCO global task force.<br/><br/>Among the main aims of the IDIL 2022-2032 are:<br/><br/>To ensure that indigenous and tribal people can exercise their right to preserve and promote their languages.<br/><br/>- To mainstream linguistic diversity and multilingualism into sustainable development efforts.<br/><br/>Member states to consider establishing national mechanisms with adequate funding for successful implementation of the IDIL 2022-2032 in parternership with indigenous people.<br/><br/>After meetings between IGNCA and UNESCO, it was realized that while India is a linguistically and culturally rich landscape, information on lesser-known languages remains woefully inadequate. Moreover, no comprehensive list is available that enlists tribal and indigenous languages. The data available is scattered and organized haphazardly in different repositories, such as the UNESCO World Atlas, which has only 197 Indian languages, a small fraction of the actual number of languages found. Other repositories and catalogues such as Glottolog and Ethnologue also remain incomplete. The only sources for data on Indian languages remain the decadal national census and small decentralized projects such as the People's Linguistic Survey of India (PLSI) and Scheme for Protection and Preservation of Endangered Languages (SPPEL) run by the Central Institute of Indian Languages, Mysore.<br/><br/>
