Voices of the Himalayas Project
As a part of the Endangered Language Alliance, the Himalayas Project was created as a language documentation project in New York City to observe Himalayan + Tibetic languages. The following video displays a series of participants from a wide range of regions discussing their cultural heritage and language.
To the right, a map of the specific linguistic families throughout NYC is displayed. The link provides an interactive database of families and households that each speak their respective languages.
