The Natural Language Processing (NLP) tools is deemed to enhance health communication through multilingual translation and dialogue systems (SDG 3), improving access to quality education for diverse linguistic communities (SDG 4), bridging the digital divide for marginalized groups to preserve and promote their languages (SDG 10), and fostering international cooperation in cultural and linguistic preservation through collaboration with global partners (SDG 17).

Preserving and documenting endangered languages plays a crucial role in achieving several Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). It not only helps maintain the cultural identity and mental well-being of indigenous communities (SDG 3), but also creates a rich repository of linguistic knowledge that supports lifelong learning and cultural education for future generations (SDG 4).

Ensuring the survival and accessibility of endangered languages reduces cultural inequalities by preserving the heritage of marginalized communities (SDG 10). Partnering with local and international organizations in language preservation efforts fosters global collaboration and strengthens shared commitments to cultural diversity (SDG 17).

Empowering local communities with resources and training for language preservation enhances their social well-being and mental health by fostering a strong sense of identity and pride (SDG 3). This empowerment enables communities to actively engage in the preservation and revitalization of their native languages, contributing to educational enrichment (SDG 4).

By equipping them with the necessary tools and knowledge, we seek to help reduce inequalities and enable the preservation of their cultural heritage (SDG 10). Collaborating with community organizations and stakeholders in empowerment initiatives fosters partnerships that support collective progress in language revitalization (SDG 17).

Promoting research excellence in Natural Language Processing (NLP) can lead to innovative health communication tools that improve health literacy and access to health information (SDG 3). Additionally, encouraging and training new NLP researchers in Mindanao advances the field of language technology, contributing to higher educational standards and innovation (SDG 4).

By developing a vibrant research environment, we ensure that all regions, including underserved areas, can contribute to and benefit from advancements in language technology, thereby reducing inequalities (SDG 10). Fostering collaboration and knowledge exchange among researchers and institutions enhances global partnerships, supporting collective progress in language technology and preservation (SDG 17).

Influencing language preservation policies is essential for ensuring that health information is accessible in native languages, which improves health outcomes for indigenous and marginalized communities (SDG 3).Advocating for supportive language policies guarantees that educational materials are available in native languages, thereby enhancing the quality and inclusivity of education (SDG 4).

By shaping policies that support language preservation, we promote linguistic diversity and reduce cultural inequalities, protecting the rights of marginalized language communities (SDG 10). Creating a comprehensive technology roadmap and advocating for supportive policies fosters collaboration among stakeholders, ensuring a united and strategic approach to Natural Language Processing studies and language revitalization efforts (SDG 17).
