FLI Publishes 8th Poetry Book Izran in Palula Language

The Forum for Language Initiatives (FLI) has published another milestone in indigenous literature: Izran (Rainbow), a poetry book in the Palula language authored by Munir Ahmad Abidi.

This marks the 8th book published in the Palula language by FLI, in addition to printing support for education material in the language, a testament to its ongoing commitment to preserving and promoting indigenous voices.

Munir Ahmad Abidi, a long-time trainee of FLI, is celebrated not only as a poet but also as the first singer of the Palula language. His dedication to writing and singing in his mother tongue inspired FLI to preserve and promote his works without delay.

Through Izran, FLI aims to strengthen Palula reading and singing traditions while encouraging the growth of poetry in the language. As a gift, the book is presented to the youth of the Palula community, with the hope that they will embrace and enjoy this vibrant addition to their cultural heritage.
