Language rights are human rights: How Clear Global supports underserved communities through language technology

In this special Loc Lessons episode, Corinne Smith is joined by Jolanta Wantuła, Project Management Unit Manager at Clear Global, a non-profit organisation whose mission it is to help people get vital information and be heard – whatever language they speak.

Jolanta shares how Clear Global builds language technology to bridge communication gaps in crisis response, and to support communities of underserved languages. From building voice data sets in low-resource languages, to creating foundational data platforms to map and understand global language distribution, to working with a community of over 200,000 Translators without Borders volunteers, this inspirational episode highlights how supporting language rights is essential for human rights and social inclusion.
