The Yvy Marãeỹ Foundation (pronounced as /gn/, en|Land without evil) is an institution which advocates for Guaraní language, its diffusion, teaching and research. It is headquartered in San Lorenzo, Paraguay.
It obtained its legal capacity in February 2007, per Decree No. 9184.[1] Its vision is for a multilingual and intercultural Paraguayan society, promoting cultural and linguistic sovereignty, national identity, cultural and linguistic rights and social inclusion of all Paraguayans.[2]
The Foundation organized three International Seminars on Translation, Terminology and Minoritized Languages in 2016, 2017, and 2018.[3] [4] They have published IT dictionaries and reports, and they are currently collaborating in the translation of Facebook and other websites.[5]
