Academia Mayor de la Lengua Quechua

The High Academy of the Quechua Language (Spanish: Academia Mayor de la Lengua Quechua; Quechua: Qheswa Simi Hamut'ana Kuraq Suntur/Qhichwa Simi Hamut'ana Kuraq Suntur), or AMLQ, is a Peruvian organization whose purpose is stated as the teaching, promotion, and dissemination of the Quechua language.

Although the institution has subsidiary associations in different regions of Peru and in several cities around the world, it mainly operates in the department of Cusco and uses the Cusco dialect in its publications and courses for Quechua as a second language. The institution is controversial because of its particularist linguistic ideologies and its defense of a 5-vowel alphabet for Quechua. There is no consensus about whether the organization is a private or a public institution.

The mission of the institution is to teach, promote, and disseminate the Quechua language and to stimulate the development of literature in this language. In practice, their main activity is offering courses for Quechua as a second language and organizing cultural events about Andean culture, making the AMLQ one of the major cultural organizations in Cusco. They also organize symposia called 'Quechua World Congresses' with participants coming from other departments and countries.
