Meeting Description:

The First International Conference on Revitalization of Indigenous and
Minoritized Languages will take place April 19-21 2017 in Barcelona, Spain.

The conference is sponsored by Universitat de Barcelona, Universitat de
Vic-Universitat Central de Catalunya, and Indiana University-Bloomington.

The mission of the conference is to bring together instructors, practitioners,
activists, indigenous leaders, scholars and learners who speak and study these
languages. This international conference includes research, pedagogy and
practice about the diverse languages and cultures of Indigenous and
minoritized populations worldwide. The conference engages participants in a
global dialogue and also serves as a forum for networking and exchanging
ideas, experiences and research on language revitalization issues from
interdisciplinary perspectives. In other words, its mission is to exchange
different ideas and experiences that will transcend the academy walls and find
space in the larger world community by giving all the participants an opening
to share their multiple ways of being, seeing, knowing and learning.

Plenary Speakers:

Rodolfo Cerrón-Palomino (Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú)
Maya Khemlani David (University of Malaya)
Teresa McCarty (University of California, Los Angeles)
Joan Peytaví (Universitat de Perpinyà)

Universitat de Vic-Universitat Central de Catalunya, the Department of
Literacy, Culture, and Language Education and the Department of Folklore and
Ethnomusicology at Indiana University-Bloomington invite proposals for panels,
individual papers, roundtable discussions, inte ractive workshops, poster
sessions, and instructional technology showcases to be presented at the First
International Conference on Revitalization of Indigenous and Minoritized

opportunity for conference participants to engage with some of the challenging
and fundamental questions at the intersection of theory, research and praxis.

New deadline for abstract submission: September 15 2016.
