Extracted from the Wikipedia article Instituto Nacional de Lenguas Indígenas.

INALI works to promote and protect the use of Mexico's indigenous languages, which it divides into 68 living "linguistic groups" and . While many of the "groups" have traditionally been considered single languages, INALI recommends that the "varieties" be considered as separate languages in all matters of justice, education, health, and civil administration or information. One of INALI's main tasks is to prevent the disappearance and extinction of indigenous languages that have survived from pre-Hispanic times.
