Meeting Description:

The objective of this program is to invite the institutes and universities in
India working in the field of Language Documentation with an aim of
documenting the lesser known, endangered and indigenous languages of the
country. As part of the two most important initiatives taken by the University
Grants Commission during the XII plan period i.e. center for endangered
languages for the central universities and major research project on
endangered and indigenous languages given to the state universities, in
different parts of India we all are working with a common agenda which
includes understanding of the linguistic characteristics and the
ethnolinguistic aspects of the concerned communities. 

The SRIELI-Jadavpur University project team invites members and colleagues
working in language documentation projects within India and abroad for
discussing issues related to language documentation, archiving and knowledge
dissemination. The seminar intends to involve those who are directly related
to any of the following three parts indispensable in a documentation project.


Call for Papers:

Papers /workshop proposals are invited from the following areas (broadly):

Specific field-based studies on endangered languages, Language documentation, 
Anthropolinguistic study, socio-cultural aspects of any indigenous languages,
data archiving, data management and networking, Ethno-linguistic studies,
Linguistic vitality, Basic linguistic framework and writing grammars.

Last date for sending abstracts and workshop proposal via email
(srieli.sll.ju[AT]gmail.com) is by 20 February, 2018.
