Who we are and what we stand for:
Terralingua is an international non-governmental organization founded in 1996 by a group of committed individuals from different backgrounds who shared a fundamental set of beliefs:
… that the diversity of life on earth is biological, cultural, and linguistic diversity (or "biocultural diversity");
… that biological, cultural, and linguistic diversity are co-evolved, interdependent, and mutually reinforcing;
...that there is a rapid, converging crisis of extinction of the biocultural diversity of life on earth, and that is imperative to stem this crisis for the survival of all life;
… that healthy environments, resilient cultures, and vibrant languages are a matter of social justice and basic human rights for human societies, including importantly indigenous peoples and local communities;
… that the challenge of protecting, maintaining, and restoring the diversity of life on earth is the challenge of supporting and promoting diversity in nature and culture.
