FLI Signs MoU with Palula Language Community

January 22, 2026.

The Forum for Language Initiatives (FLI) has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the Palula Community Welfare Organization (PCWO), marking an important step in our commitment to promoting indigenous poetry. Qazi Israr, President of PCWO, signed MoU on behalf of the Palula community.

FLI previously consulted closely with both the Palula and Ormuri communities to design the Poetry Promotion Project; an MoU with the Ormuri community had already been signed, and this agreement with PCWO is the second under the initiative. Before the ceremony, FLI oriented the PCWO delegation on the project’s goals and activities, and both sides reviewed and agreed on the plan point by point.

The one‑year project will focus on promoting poetry in Ormuri and Palula languages, supporting local poets, documenting oral traditions, and building community capacity for cultural preservation.
