The Indigenous Language Imbizo


Pendoring invites all stakeholders from the private sector, civil society and academia to participate in the Indigenous Language Imbizo to activate the UN International Decade of Indigenous Languages (2022-2032) in South Africa.


Through a series of short talks, panel discussions and interviews, the Indigenous Language Imbizo will be a platform to unite multiple stakeholders to campaign for the further development of and investment in South Africa’s indigenous languages, and for a more multilingual society.


The Indigenous Language Imbizo is free to attend and open to all passionate about developing indigenous languages and multilingualism in South Africa. Please register beforehand.

About the Pendoring Awards


The Pendoring Awards were established to celebrate and develop indigenous language capacity in the advertising and communications sectors. The Awards celebrate and promote our rich and diverse indigenous cultural heritage by rewarding authentic creativity in South Africa's indigenous mother tongues. Through the work of the Pendoring Awards, more and more creative agencies, publishers, media companies, and tertiary institutions are responding to the call to become more inclusive and diverse in their communication.


The Indigenous Language Imbizo is a means to begin celebrating and promoting South Africa’s indigenous languages beyond the advertising, marketing, communications, and publishing industries.
