Happy World Accents Celebration Day! From raising awareness to influencing changes, we are grateful for how far we've come.
Much remains to be and we are committed to creating a global society where no one is disadvantaged because of how they speak.

Happy World Accents Celebration Day!
This year’s focus is on owning our authentic voices. We now live in a hyper-connected world that is filled with many voices and voice authenticity is drowning.

The recent World Accents Celebration Day events at the University of Bradford and the University of Port Harcourt were a huge success! The launch of the Protect Accent Society was incredibly successful, and we are grateful to all the attendees.
The event was an eye-opener, and both speakers and participants went home with newfound knowledge and many takeaways. This is the fourth year of the annual World Accents Celebration Day, and it has been the most successful.
