HIGA!: 4th Meeting of Young Speakers of Minoritized Languages

Experiences of participants

HIGA's objectives HIGA 2025 has a clear mission: to empower young speakers of minority languages to become agents of change in their communities and globally. Through academic training, practical activities, and the exchange of experiences, HIGA seeks to contribute significantly to linguistic revitalization and youth activism.

Mariam, TAMAZIGH

"It's a great space and opportunity to gather and meet indigenous youth and minorities from different places and countries."

Teija, SAAMI

"I got new inspiration to work on my language. The nicest was to notice that friends who speak minority languages have similar experiences, even though they are from all over the world."

Talwyn, BREZHONEG

"Each person who travelled to Vitoria-Gasteiz came to celebrate multilingualism and shared their story."

HIGA Alumni is an online gathering that brings together young speakers of minoritised languages around the world. This year's edition will take place on Zoom from July 17 to July 19, 2026. 

​

It will include presentations and workshops in Basque, Spanish and English, as well as creative contributions in a variety of languages. Participants will also have the chance to talk about their languages and their language work in coffee chat breaks. You can view the programme here (times in Central European Summer Time).
