The I AM project, created by the Free Spirit Foundation, is dedicated to preserving languages and nature.

The I AM project has been created to reveal the beauty of any language across the globe and the beauty of nature, too. The objective of this initiative is to protect endangered languages for the next generations. The I AM project reminds us that human beings and nature are connected and cannot be separated. The I AM project is the voice of the forests, the oceans, species, the earth and the sky. Any participant can be part of the initiative by recording their voice, reading the words of the elements of the environment. The audio files are stored and published on the official website. The I AM initiative is a cultural project. Protecting languages is a duty of memory.

I am…
I am living thing…
I am the animal that runs next to you from your first steps on this planet
I am part of a complex and sublime ecosystem.
I belong to the earth, the forests, the oceans and the sky.
I am beautiful and mysterious.
I am both the predator and the prey.
Often in motion, nature is home to me.
I like my loneliness and I like being surrounded by my tribe.
I am so many things at the same time.
I am a bird singing and dancing with the clouds.
I am a leopard, faster than the wind.
I am a lion, with a crown respected by all.
I am an elephant, a proud member of a herd.
I am a tiger, alone, strong, smart and beautiful.
I am a gorilla, whose behavior is a mystery to you.
I am a whale bigger than your imagination.
I am a polar bear, my coat makes me invisible in the white desert.
I am all species at the same time.
I see, I listen and I breathe,
However, every day, I disappear in silence
For your children I become a memory…
I am a voice you are not listening to
and very soon, I’ll only be a legend…
