tipeewe iišiteehiaanki waahpyaayiikwi kiihkayonki – Welcome to Fort Wayne!

On behalf of the organizing committee and Purdue Fort Wayne, we welcome you to northern Indiana, the

ancestral lands of the Myaamia and Potawatomi people, to our city, campus, and this conference celebrat-

ing Indigenous and minority languages. We are honored to humbly host this event, and look forward to all

the synergy that happens this week, to seeing old friends, and to making new friends.

We of course would not be here without the UNESCO 2019 International Year of Indigenous Languages,

and we thank the UNESCO 2019 IYIL Steering Committee, Diego Tituaña, and all those behind the scenes

for the many years of getting the hard work done to make this year possible. We would also like to

acknowledge our colleague Dr. Chad Thompson whose community-based collaborative projects with our

local Indigenous communities laid the foundation for the conference organizers’ partnerships with the

Myaamia Center and our local Mon community. We are grateful for the trust these communities have given

us, and grateful for their support, their guidance, and their participation.

These Indigenous communities have provided us with many opportunities, including demonstrating that the

“local” is truly “global.” Of the over 7,000 languages spoken across the globe, 3,000 are spoken by approx-

imately 400 million Indigenous community members in over 90 countries. Our local community members

remind us that our community is multilingual, rich in diversity and human experiences, and that we are part

of a global community—home to thriving Indigenous communities. The Myaamia and Mon language pro-

grams have been exemplars locally, nationally, and internationally, of what communities can and are doing

to celebrate, promote, and sustain their languages despite the mounting challenges our friends and their

communities face.

It would be remiss of us not to acknowledge the support of our campus community for this event. We wish

participants to know that every unit contributed significantly in making this event possible. We especially

wish to recognize the support of our Chancellor Ronald Elsenbaumer, Vice Chancellor of Academic Affairs

Carl Drummond, Vice Chancellor of Financial Affairs David Wesse, Vice Chancellor of Communications

and Marketing Jerry Lewis, and Director of University Research and Innovation Connie Kracher. We also

acknowledge our students, staff, and faculty who have worked tirelessly to ensure participants find the

event fruitful. We thank you all for giving us an opportunity as a campus community to come together in

celebration of language, Indigeneity, our local community, and our mission as a public institution of higher

learning and community engagement.

We honor the understanding that languages are one of the most defining and important characteristics of a

person’s culture and identity. It has been our pleasure to create a space where we can celebrate Indigenous

languages for a few days while also learning from each other. We believe providing space for this good

work brings us closer to a more peaceful future.

Finally, we want to wish the American Indian Language Development Institute a happy 40th birthday!

neewe,

Executive Organizing Committee
