Upon the increasing oppression and assimilation policies against the Kurdish Language, DÎSA-DER was founded recently.    The association that started the Kurdish Language workhops as a start , aims to  to realize some very important works.   Kurdish Writer Nezir Ocek who stated that eventhough the associations working on the language gets shut down, they always established new ones, said DÎSA-DER is very important due to that fact. Ocek said:" If a language is solely used in daily life and not in education, trade, culture and literature, it dies."   Association administrator Evin Aydın said: " To embrace this association is to embrace your own language and culture. Language is the most fundamental value that establishes a community. If we embrace out language, we'll embrace ourselves and our futures" and requested the people of Van to support the association.
