Help ensure that communities whose languages are not supported on electronic devices today will ultimately be able to write their language in the future and have their written legacy preserved.
Funding will support work on documents that request letters, symbols, and other graphic elements needed to write different languages of the world. These documents are written by Unicode proposal authors, scholarly researchers, and script experts, drawn from Unicode veterans, faculty, students and user communities.
Funding also goes to support articles and presentations by students and project team members explain why the work on Unicode is critical today. The Unicode process can be very confusing and opaque, so explaining it clearly can make it possible for more students, scholars, and others to understand the importance of the written legacies of languages.
