Two thirds of the 7,000+ languages spoken today do not have a written form. In many low- and middle-income countries, colonial languages like English or French are the teaching medium, but that doesn’t mean that the majority are comfortable reading and writing them.

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.
