The Sami people, also spelled Sámi or Saami, are the Arctic indigenous people inhabiting Sápmi, which today encompasses parts of far northern Sweden, Norway, Finland, the Kola Peninsula of Russia, and the border area between south and middle Sweden and Norway... Their traditional language is the Sami language and is classified as a branch of the Uralic- Turanian language family. | Great Spirit of Turan

The Sámi language, like many other Indigenous languages – including those spoken by First Nations people across Australia – has been threatened by policies of assimilation. But with support from Norway’s representative body, the Sámi Parliament, there are initiatives to help the language thrive by passing it on to the next generation. In this 2023 episode, Karla Grant travelled to Norway to learn about the Sámi Parliament. SBS Dateline | Watch The Sámi Voice now on SBS On Demand. | SBS On Demand
