Community mobilization and door-to-door campaign among the Aka (Hrusso) community

NEILAC, in partnership with the Aka Language Academy, conducted a month-long community mobilization in West Kameng District, Arunachal Pradesh, targeting the Aka (Hrusso) community. Engaging with Sixteen villages and approximately Four Hundred families, the team visited every household and distributed posters and alphabet charts to promote language and ecological awareness. By fostering a deeper understanding of language preservation and environmental consciousness, the effort aimed to instill pride and responsibility within the Aka community. Through grassroots outreach and educational materials, NEILAC and the Aka Language Academy collaborated to cultivate sustainable appreciation and stewardship of the Hrusso language, culture, and the ecological knowledge and best practices of the community.
