You're watching UNICEF Television.
00:00:00
Welcome to Lagoon Sinameca, home to the Añu,
00:00:04
one of the many indigenous groups in Venezuela.
00:00:08
The word Añu means people of water,
00:00:13
but today their water is polluted
00:00:16
and their culture and language are under threat.
00:00:19
Among the 3,500 Añu men, women and children,
00:00:24
there's only one person left
00:00:29
who has full knowledge of the indigenous language.
00:00:31
Like so many others in their community,
00:00:36
Zaida and her five-year-old son Juan
00:00:39
cannot speak or understand their own language.
00:00:42
Thanks to UNICEF's commitment to revitalizing Añu culture,
00:00:47
mother and son are now learning Añu for the first time.
00:00:51
Everything that I have learned I will pass on to my children
00:00:56
so that they don't feel ashamed of their ethnicity
00:01:05
and know how to speak their own language.
00:01:08
I want them to carry it in their blood
00:01:10
to go on to defend their culture everywhere they go,
00:01:12
all over the world.
00:01:15
Today Juan joins a group of children for a lesson.
00:01:17
Felix is one of the teachers who are trained
00:01:20
to help restore the native tongue among some 500 children.
00:01:23
If we give 100% to learning our language,
00:01:32
then it won't be a dead language, as they say.
00:01:35
It will be a living language for Venezuela,
00:01:38
for the ethnic groups that currently exist in Venezuela.
00:01:40
Not letting their language fade has become a task
00:01:45
more urgent than ever for the whole Añu community.
00:01:49
When I grow up, I want to be a teacher
00:01:55
to teach children how to speak Añu.
00:01:57
The efforts will help these children tell the world
00:02:00
in their own language all about Añu,
00:02:03
where they come from and who they really are.
00:02:06
In Lagun, Sinameca, Venezuela,
00:02:11
this is Kunli reporting for UNICEF Television.
00:02:14
Unite for Children.
