Institute for Global Engagement

Language is how the world connects.

Lingofi believes every language is worth investing in, from Arabic, Persian, and Russian to Swahili and Haitian Creole. IGE turns regional research into open language resources: dictionaries, courses, and tools built to help learners go deeper into a language, and to give native speakers material that reflects it with real care.
