Join us on a journey through language and culture with Lorie Roule, a multilingual expert from the intelligence community. From her fascination with French in fifth grade to her proficiency in Russian, Arabic, and Turkish, Lorie shares insights into the joy of language learning and the art of conversational code-switching. Explore the significance of language proficiency in high-stakes translation scenarios where precision and strategy intersect in communication.
Imagine a world where communication bridges diverse populations, regardless of age. Discover the cognitive flexibility that enables lifelong learning and the importance of language education in national security. Inspired by Lori's post-retirement advocacy, we highlight language learning as a vital societal asset.
Language embodies both strategy and emotion. Journey with us as we explore the emotional depth of language, connecting cultures and fostering personal relationships. Celebrate stories of language revitalization, including the Reencuentro Taino Conference (https://www.tainoconference.org/) and the efforts of organizations like Planet Word and 7,000 Languages to preserve human expression. Join us for a heartfelt reflection on the power of language to connect, empower, and advocate for sustainable language programs.
