An initiative to document and spread oral literatures threatened by [[extinction]]. Oral literature was and remains the principal form of literature for many [[Culture|cultures]] and communities around the world, with stories being passed down from generation to generation. With the rapid spread of [[globalization]], however, many languages are becoming extinct, leading to the loss of oral literature. Established in 2009, the World Oral Literature Project seeks to transcribe and preserve oral literatures before they disappear, allowing current and future generations access to a diverse range of traditional cultural literature. | An initiative to document and spread oral literatures threatened by [[extinction]].
