Adiel sheds light on the language policies of multiple African nations and shows us what is most effective. By focusing on South Africa, he shows us what language policies must accomplish and how governments should proceed to enforce them. Adiel is a graduating senior in WBAIS who has completed the AP Research course. His research, centered on South African language policy and its implementation, explores the complex relationship between language and government in a multilingual Africa. Through a series of interviews, Adiel discovered weak spots in the language policy and what needs South Africans have in regards to it. His findings also show the need for more political will from the government to implement constitutional provisions on language in order to achieve the goals of an ambitious language policy. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at [ Ссылка ]
