Olena Ivanovska, Commissioner for the Protection of the State Language, has called for increased regional representation of the Language Ombudsman to better address language-related issues across the country. In a recent statement, Ivanovska highlighted the importance of ensuring that the Language Ombudsman has a stronger presence in regional areas, enabling the agency to more effectively address language-related concerns and promote the protection of the state language.
The commissioner’s remarks come as part of ongoing efforts to enhance the role of the Language Omb, which is responsible for safeguarding the state language and promoting its use in public life. By strengthening the Ombudsman’s representation in the regions, Ivanovska believes that the agency can better respond to the needs of local communities and address any issues related to language use and preservation.
This initiative is part of a broader strategy to ensure that the state language remains a central part of national identity and public life. The proposed changes are expected to involve increased collaboration between regional authorities and the Language Ombudsman, with the goal of creating a more comprehensive and effective approach to language protection and promotion.
