Abstract

The article discusses the revival of the Quechua language in Peru. Topics covered include the launch of the first Quechua language television news service to recognise Peru as a multilingual country, the catastrophic event resulting from the mass migration of impoverished and rural communities to the cities and the concern raised by professor Roger Gonzalo Segura over the children's ability to speak indigenous languages.
