The publishing of the Wapishana Grammar (Gramática Pedagógica da Língua Wapichana), the first one of a series of indigenous languages grammars to be finished and published, represents a landmark for the Wapishana people, as it will be of fundamental importace to perpetuate their language.

This grammar began to be built in 2013, with the full protagonism of Wapishana indigenous teachers, the guidance of renowned linguists and the important support of Museu do Índio and UNESCO. Aiming to fulfill the teaching needs of  indigenous teachers, it will be used as a source and instrument at schools and inside the community to revitalize the Wapishana language for the younger and upcoming generations.
