MTCN stands for Mother Tongue Center Nepal. It started in the year 2001 with translation of booklets into different mother tongues of Nepal on the social issues like, health, awareness and empowerment etc, developed by UMN in Nepali language. From 2002 onward, it has been further working on language development and education.
Now MTCN works for language documentation and orthography development ( A Mother Tongue Writing Guide), stretching further on for dictionary development and the literacy program in future to help ethnic minorities in the area of language development and to preserve endangered languages in Nepal.
Since, 2002 we are collecting our experience of diverse language and community of ethnic and language diversity of Nepal. We share our idea and information to the enthusiast concerned linguist agency to development on the field of academic site. MTCN is working for that from very beginning coordinating and organizing physical meeting to coordinate with MT-Speakers stakeholders.
