The participants of the round table unanimously noted that the preservation of languages is one of the priority tasks for the state. During the discussion, important issues were raised regarding the role of language in culture and identity, as well as the problems of its study and preservation. Particular attention was paid to the state and development of endangered languages, which confirmed the need to implement effective strategies and support programs.
During the discussion, the participants proposed an initiative to create a language club. This club will allow everyone to share experiences and practice their native language.
