The UBC Punjabi Studies Oral History project has documented aspects of the history of the Punjabi language in BC, and the lives and activities of the people who made it happen, focusing on K-12 teachers<\/a>, advocates\/activists<\/a>, and on writers and journalists<\/a> who have written in the language and built institutions to support Punjabi language and literature.
