Abstract: In Mexico, 68 indigenous languages (LI) are spoken which are at risk of disappearance. The use of ICTs can be an ally for LIs by allowing them to increase their visibility, promoting their use, teaching, and learning. A multidisciplinary group of LI speakers created a platform on Facebook (@lenguasweb) intending to raise awareness of the linguistic richness, as well as teach illiterate speakers the written form of their own language. We hope to be a motive, especially for young people, and contribute to the preservation, dissemination, and revitalization of the minority languages of Mexico and the world.
