PARRA-ROMERO, Adela; CASTRO-GIL, Robin; PENARANDA, Alejandro  e  TRIVINO, Manuela. Technological practice to safeguard and promote native languages from Vaupés. CS [online]. 2025, n.46, a03.  Epub 09-Jul-2025. ISSN 2011-0324.  https://doi.org/10.18046/recs.i46.03.

This study analyzes the use of digital technologies in a project aimed at strengthening local capacities in native language research in the department of Vaupés, Colombia. Using an interdisciplinary approach, we developed several digital resources, including a digital research repository, a bulletin board, a web page, and multimedia content in the native language and Spanish. Inspired by the concept of technological practice, we argue that technology can enhance native language safeguarding processes if it is viewed as a system involving technical, organizational, and cultural aspects. Related concepts such as social appropriation of knowledge and scientific communication were implemented to work on organizational and cultural aspects, through transmedia content, and address communication needs in a multilingual and culturally diverse territory. This work contributes to showing how technologies as a practice can provide technically robust, culturally appropriate, and sustainable solutions.
