08 Language Language is one of the most important factors influencing Meta’s human rights impacts. The importance of language was underscored in stakeholder consultations in the Comprehensive Human Rights Salient Risk Assessment. In 2022, we increased our capacity to support more languages and enabled more people to exercise their rights online, including access to remedies. Understanding local context is important for understanding potential human rights risks. That’s why language capacity at Meta includes both human and machine-based translations. Language support includes language detection and language-based classifiers, content moderation, and translation of user interfaces, as well as other content like the Help Center or Community Standards. We are continuously working on adding support for more languages. Between 2021 and the end of 2022, our team extended professional support for Facebook’s user interface in 30 additional languages. The list includes languages that are underrepresented on the internet and for which linguistic sourcing and translation are a challenge, such as Javanese, Shona, Kirundi, Sinhala, Nepali, and Assamese. Additionally, by the end of 2022, our Community Standards were available in 77 languages. Human rights report 44
