Multiple GAs speaking in conference with their comments being translated into English would be a healthy sign too.
In this vein, I'd push Deseret Book to ramp up international publishing on all fronts. Continue to translate English works into native languages, but push hard for indigenous authors and works.

I've never read an indigenous LDS author. Have you?
