Over 90 percent of the 6,700 languages across the world are spoken by only 3 percent of the world’s population. Although indigenous people make up less than 6 percent of the global population, they speak more than 4,000 of the world’s languages.
“Indigenous languages are complex pieces of knowledge that have developed over generations,” said Kadey Soren, a Bhubaneswar-based development practitioner. Soren belongs to the Santal tribal community. He is also the author of a book, “Rethinking on Tribal Education in Mayurbhanj district of Odisha.”
