The Hakka language, which is spoken by over 80 million globally, exhibits prominent dialectal variation and cultural richness in modern society. Despite its widespread presence, Hakka in a latent sense faces endangerment due to urbanization and lin-guistic assimilation, particularly among the youth. This study conducted a small-scale survey to critically explore the relationship between the dialect and its cultural iden-tity aiming to assess whether the revival of Hakka is viable. It proposes a multidi-mensional mixed approach from both macro and micro perspectives and advocates for the revitalization of Hakka dialects with 3 aspects through socio-economic inte-gration, educational strategies. The aim is to advocate preservation of Hakka linguis-tic diversity and cultural identity by offering a nuanced view of complex interplay between language, culture, and human rights.
