Linguistic sustainability delves into both the theoretical frameworks and practical methodologies essential for the revitalization of languages threatened by the pervasive forces of globalization and cultural homogenization. With predictions indicating that nearly half of the 6,000 languages spoken today will face extinction by the end of this century, this article underlines the critical importance of safeguarding linguistic diversity. Our research scrutinizes major factors contributing to language endangerment, such as socio-economic pressures, cultural assimilation, and the lack of institutional support. The principal aim of our study is to identify powerful strategies for language revitalization and to illustrate how Indonesia, a country boasting over 700 languages, employs these strategies to sustain its linguistic heritage. Adopting a qualitative approach anchored in a comprehensive literature review, we endeavor to delineate the predominant factors precipitating language endangerment and extinction, while simultaneously identifying robust revitalization strategies. The article features an intricate case study of Indonesia, elucidating the nation’s multifaceted approach to language preservation. This includes the integration of regional languages into educational curricula, the promotion of linguistic diversity across various platforms, the digitization of linguistic resources, and the establishment of legal protections. Our findings demonstrate that Indonesia’s diverse and nuanced strategies are effective in fostering linguistic diversity, providing a valuable model for other multilingual societies globally. Ultimately, the preservation of linguistic diversity requires a concerted and collaborative effort from governments, educational institutions, communities, and individuals alike
