The aim of our journal is to promote the development of local languages. In these pages, you will read about an unlikely heroine of early language development in Ethiopia, some responses to the first Culture and Language Symposium in the Bench-Maji Zone, a thoughtful exposition about language endangerment, and much more. You will be inspired, informed, and hopefully challenged about the issues raised here.
