Professional/Notable Endorsements


For Individuals
If you are a professional or possess skills which may contribute to our campaign (or if you know someone who does), we would love to have your participation!

Endorsements of artists, dignitaries, etc., will be limited to those willing to agree with our campaign to leave the decision to a global representative body (rather than those insisting on a particular language or kind of language). However, the individual or organization is of course free to hold their own preferences (e.g., members of an Esperanto society). If you are considering endorsing the campaign, but are still unsure, feel free to contact us with your questions (or post a post at our discussion board).

Translate/Adapt

If you are willing to translate our webpage into additional languages, please contact us.

You will need to be sure to consider whether the audience of your language group will be likely to have certain questions addresses or emphasized differently than at our page (though we hope our page can comprehensively address most questions which would arise on the topic--please submit any suggestions).

Before beginning such an endeavor, be sure to check with us to ensure that the language you have in mind isn't already being worked on.

 Media/media materials

Media Advocacy

(See also our News page for news of our own campaign and a world language as found at our website and in outside media.)

1. If you are a media personality or institution willing to endorse our campaign, we would be pleased to list you at our website as such.

2. If you are taking actions or developing materials for your own internal use (amongst other media or with your own staff, for example), please email us so that we can refer to (or provide a link to) your activities.

3. If you have broadcast or published a piece for the public, or are considering doing so, please contact us know so that we can refer to your work at our website (and/or link to your piece). We are eager for knowledge of positive, neutral or even negative publicity (assuming someone could really be against such a reasonable idea!).

Please visit our FAQ page and action page to understand what a world auxiliary language would involve (and not involve).

Again, our news page should show any other media pieces (which we know of) on the topic of a world auxiliary language and/or on our specific campaign. Our further links and map and statistics page may also be of interest in your research (actually any site, as can be found through our welcome page) as it could give more of an idea of our campaign.
