National Advisory Council of Native Languages
The National Advisory Council of Native Languages was created to guarantee the recognition, protection and strengthening of native languages and to protect the individual and collective rights of ethnic groups with their own linguistic traditions as well as the promotion of the use and development of their native languages. This Council is a technical body designated to advise the Ministry of Culture on the definition, adoption and orientation of plans for the protection and strengthening of the languages of the country's ethnic groups. Its creation is in line with the OIT (Span.) Convention 169 on Indigenous and Tribal Peoples. The Council consists mainly of people belonging to the ethnic groups recognized for their languages and / or career in their promotion, which are chosen by the same community. Participating are native language experts from the institutions and universities that study them and delegates from the Ministries responsible for working with ethnic groups in the country.
