Cultural Symbols, Identity and Language Revitalisation: A Kashubian Perspective (C-SILK) POSTER

Kashubian, spoken in northwestern Poland, is at risk of disappearing. This project explores how young people connect with their heritage through language, music, media, and community- and how cultural leaders see new ways to keep the language alive through modernisation.

Hi! I’m Sophie Kleina, a Psychological and Behavioural Sciences student at the University of Cambridge.

I’m passionate about language learning and preservation, which is why my Laidlaw research project focuses on the Kashubian language- a regional and Indigenous language of northern Poland, and a heritage I’m proud to be part of.

My academic interests span sociology, linguistics, psychology, and education, and I’m especially drawn to work that supports cultural diversity, educational access, and meaningful social change. I care deeply about doing work that helps people, strengthens communities, and protects the richness of human language and identity.

I’m always eager to learn from others and collaborate on projects that make a difference- feel free to connect!
