Full Title: Dene (Athabaskan) Langauges Conference 

Date: 06-Jun-2005 - 07-Jun-2005
Location: Victoria, BC, Canada 
Contact Person: Leslie Saxon
Meeting Email: saxon at uvic.ca
Web Site: http://www.uaf.edu/anlc/alc 

Linguistic Field(s): General Linguistics 

Language Family(ies): Na-Dene 

Call Deadline: 15-Apr-2005 

Meeting Description:

The annual Dene (Athabaskan) Language Conference will be held at the University
of Victoria on June 6-7.  As in past years papers are welcome on an topic
relating to Dene (Athabaskan) languages, including revitalization,
documentation, theoretical linguistics, pedagogy, technology, and language
planning. 

The Dene Languages Conference will be held at the University of Victoria  on
June 6-7, immediately following the ''Stabilizing Indigenous Languages 
Symposium'' (SILS) on June 2-5.

Please send abstracts on any topic relating to Dene languages to me at  the
address below.  Electronic formats are preferred (.pdf or .doc files  please;
please test for font issues).  I am expecting that the talks  will last for 20
minutes with 10 minutes for discussion.  We will have  a digital projector
available for the Dene languages conference, and  other equipment should be
available also.  (Please specify your  requirements.)  The deadline for
abstracts is 15 April 2005.

Some people will be presenting at both SILS and the Dene languages  conference,
or at one only.  Either way, there is a lot of information  about Victoria on
the SILS website that will be useful for you.  Check  it out at:

                        http://www.fpcf.ca/SILS2005/

The on-campus housing page is at:

	       http://housing.uvic.ca/visitor/visitoraccom.php

On-campus housing will be the cheapest, but there are many other nice  places to
stay in Victoria. The SILS website has information on hotels,  etc also.

It is not necessary to register for SILS if you are only going to  attend the
Dene languages conference. (There will probably be a small  registration fee for
the Dene languages conference but details are not  known on this yet.)

Victoria is on Vancouver Island, Coast Salish territory, a short plane  or boat
trip from Seattle or Vancouver, which are on the mainland.  Because of being on
an island, flights can fill up fast, so please take  this into account when
making your travel plans. Please watch the SILS  website for further information
on transportation options.  We are  expecting perhaps 500 people for SILS, so it
could be a busy place!

The organizers are aware that the timing is short, but the opportunity  to hold
a Dene languages conference together with SILS was too good to  miss.

There will be further information forthcoming as the organizers get  more organized!

Looking forward to seeing you in Victoria in June 2005 for SILS, or the  Dene
languages conference, or both!

	 --Leslie Saxon (for the organizing committee)

PS.  Plans are underway for a larger Dene languages conference in  Yellowknife
at the end of June 2006. We have enlisted the support of  some people in the
Government of the Northwest Territories and they are  very supportive!
