Speak to Learn
Can AI feed a village?
7,000 languages. Most are still locked for AI translation. We started with Luganda in Uganda — now we are asking educators everywhere: which language should we unlock next?

60–90 second documentary-style video featuring Nampwera Frank and teachers at Bright Early Age School, Uganda.
What happened in Uganda
There is a river. On one side, educators with easy access to the latest research and training — all in English. On the other, equally committed teachers blocked because what matters still arrives in a language their community does not speak.
Braiv's AI translation technology and Gedi Village Foundation's professional development programming came together to bring self-paced learning to Luganda — the language of more than 5.5 million people in Uganda. The first beneficiary: Nampwera Frank, head teacher at Bright Early Age School, and his teachers.
This is not a pilot. It already happened — and it is only the beginning.
How the unlock works
1. Nominate
Educators submit the language their community needs. One form, 30 seconds.
2. Rally 100
One person cannot unlock a language alone. It takes a community — 100 nominations triggers the unlock.
3. Unlock
Braiv makes the language available on the platform, Gedi's courses go live, and every nominator is notified.
A joint campaign
Speak to Learn lives on both the Braiv and Gedi websites — two front doors, one movement. Wherever you land, you can nominate the next language and follow unlock progress in real time.
Live unlock tracker
Languages nominated so far, and their progress toward the 100-nomination unlock threshold. The world map will light up by country as nominations arrive.

When a language crosses 100 nominations, Braiv announces the unlock, notifies every nominator, and begins translation work with a public timeline.
Nominate the next language
Educators anywhere can submit a nomination. When a language reaches 100 nominations, Braiv commits to unlocking it for professional development courses on the platform.
Questions educators ask
- What happens when a language hits 100 nominations?
- Braiv commits to unlocking that language on the platform so Gedi's professional development courses can reach the educators who speak it. We announce publicly, email every nominator, and share a translation timeline.
- Who can nominate?
- Anyone who works in education — teachers, head teachers, school leaders, educator trainers — anywhere in the world. The 100-nomination threshold is designed so communities rally together; one person cannot unlock a language alone.
- Why Luganda first?
- Because it is the real story we can already tell: real educators, a real school, real courses — in a language that major AI pipelines overlook. The Unlock tracker is how the world tells us which language comes next.
