About
Mission and Vision Statement
Save Cantonese at UCLA is part of a larger international movement that sustains and celebrates Cantonese language and culture. Through grassroots advocacy, we protect and promote local language programs, while strengthening connections across the global Cantonese diaspora. We recognize and honor the long history of Cantonese people at UCLA and their contributions to our campus community as laborers, students, and educators. We ensure that present and emerging generations benefit from a vibrant, thriving Cantonese-speaking and learning community. We welcome people from all backgrounds and language abilities.
Strategic Aims
1. Protect and strengthen educational and research infrastructure for Cantonese as a language at UCLA and beyond.
2. Affirm the value of Cantonese culture and identity at UCLA and in societies around the world.
3. Build a movement of Cantonese diasporic and language-learning communities to take collective action at UCLA.
