International Mother Language Day (IMLD) celebrated worldwide on 21 February to promote awareness and importance of linguistic diversity contribution to peace and sustainable development. The theme for this year is “Youth at the Digital Frontier: Revitalizing Indigenous Languages in a Multilingual World”. This year, KNATCOM, is partnering with the Summer Institute of Linguistics (SIL) Kenya, Kenya National Examinations Council, Bible Translation and Literacy East Africa BTL and Kenyatta University in the 2026 IMLD Celebrations. In line with the theme, we call upon young people to explore how indigenous languages can thrive in the digital age. We urge all young people to become champions of their linguistic heritage while creatively engaging with technology. You can celebrate the day in your own unique way by sharing a short content on digital media about something unique in your mother language. Here at KNATCOM we send you greetings and peace message in our mother languages.
Mother Language Day for Peace in Diversity!
