We urge humanitarian organizations to be true allies for the LGBTQIA+ community. Review your organization's programs and policies in light of data and lived experiences to ensure the specific needs of LGBTQIA+ people in crises, including their language preferences, are taken care of.

Some of the countries where this marginalization is most intense are also the most linguistically diverse, compounding the threats to their safety.

Language data is crucial to social impact work. 🌟 Whether you're designing education programs, planning reproductive health interventions, or contributing to community services, knowing which languages people speak and where they speak them makes all the difference.

Everyone deserves the right to communicate in the language they speak. On December 10th, we celebrate #HumanRightsDay. Millions of people are excluded from basic human rights such as health, education, and crisis support simply because they speak a language that technology doesn't understand.

Since the beginning, our mission has been to ensure people access vital information, no matter what language they speak. As technology advances, speakers of a handful of languages have increased access to information and resources, while those who speak marginalized languages are left behind.

When emergency warnings, aid applications, and recovery services arrive in the wrong language, we're abandoning the communities most vulnerable to climate change. Climate action must be multilingual, or it will fail the people who need it most.

The language services and humanitarian sectors have something in common: both are going through severe changes, from the widespread use of machine technology as a replacement for humans to drastic funding cuts. The people behind these industries have been bearing the weight of these pressures.

CLEAR Global and #GSMA's Mobile for Humanitarian Innovation program explored what digital language exclusion looks like, the risks it carries, and what humanitarian organizations can do about it.
1. Assess needs in all languages – Gather data in marginalized languages for better service design.
2. Research non-users – Identify and address service gaps by understanding the language needs of those not currently reached.
3. Fund language technology – Support research and development of digital tools tailored to crisis-affected, marginalized communities.
