Every language
deserves a future

AfroBabel is an organisation dedicated to preserving and teaching under-resourced languages, and building the tools their speakers need — with a particular focus on the languages of Zambia.

Preservation

Documenting and safeguarding Zambian languages — their words, stories, and ways of speaking — so they are carried forward to future generations.

Education

Supporting the teaching and learning of Zambian languages, at home, in schools, and in communities.

Tools

Developing open technology for under-resourced languages, so that speakers of every language can use the digital tools others take for granted.

Starting with Zambia

Our work begins with the languages spoken across Zambia.
