<div>Hi Phil,</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I know exactly what you mean! It is hard for people to uproot their family to attend university, especially if they need to leave their territory, the very home of the language they want to revitalize.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I think the Master's program in Indigenous Language Revitalization at the University of Victoria tries to find a middle ground with that. The first summer, the students need to be in Victoria for one month. After that, the students return home (to teach,
work with fluent speakers, raise families, etc) and every two months, they travel back to Victoria for 6 days to do course work. For the rest of the time, I believe that they interact with their professors and fellow students online and other modes of communication.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I'm not affiliated with this program, but UVic is my Alma mater and I know many of the wonderful people who are part of UVic's Indigenous Education Program!</div>

<div>Interesting topic! However what may the options be for one who cannot really leave their homelands, or have children that aren't really able to relocate? I have great interest and dedication to indigenous language revitalization with an emphasis with family
home life use. Which is partly why I'm unable to actually pack up and leave to attain any significant "western" credentials or furthering education.<br>
<br>
Are there any options for someone such as me? (I also know of many in similar situations). Just a thought.<br>

<blockquote type="cite">One of our undergraduate majors was just in my office asking me for recommendations for graduate schools to apply to. He’s interested in language documentation, and especially applications of documentary materials for teaching. I know
we’ve talked before about how some of us (well, me at least!) feel like training in those applied areas is really lacking. I’m writing to ask what you would recommend as programs that would be good for a student interested in this. The University of Hawaii
is an obvious one for documentation, of course. But where else?<br>
