Overview

The Multilingual Internet Initiative is a collaborative project designed to broaden access to knowledge by enabling content in multiple languages. We unite translators, developers, researchers, educators, and community organizers to build open tools, translate essential content, and share governance that supports sustainable, grassroots participation. Donations fuel the work that moves a global internet closer to linguistic equity. This initiative thrives on transparent cooperation and a shared belief that language should not be a barrier to participation or learning.
