Meeting Description:

The Institute on Collaborative Language Research (CoLang) is an
international institute which creates multi-dimensional networks and
provides quality training for language workers, including activists,
teachers, linguists, and students from all types of communities.
CoLang workshops provide hands-on skills in language reclamation,
documentation, and related fields as practiced in collaborative,
community-based contexts. CoLang will be jointly held in June 2024 at
Arizona State University (ASU) and Salt River Pima-Maricopa Indian
Community (SRPMIC), one of several federally recognized tribes in the
greater Phoenix, Arizona area.

CoLang takes place every two years, bringing together the world’s
leading academics, community scholars, and Indigenous language
activists in order to provide leading-edge training in language
documentation, revitalization, and collaborative practices. The theme
for CoLang 2024 is “Creating Partnerships, Honoring Neighbors,
Building Capacity”. CoLang 2024 is a significant step in the evolution
of CoLang, as it will be the first co-equal partnership, from day one,
between a university and tribal organization in the conceiving,
planning, funding, and hosting of this world class institute. Our
theme also represents a step in the evolution of social science, where
educators and Indigenous scholars meet, learn, and do research in a
setting that was shaped by the collaborative vision of an institution
of higher learning and a tribal-run language program, one that is
facing many of the familiar challenges that Native American
communities in the United States and Indigenous communities around the
world face in reclaiming their languages.

CoLang responds to the needs of a diverse group of participants:
academic linguists who want to gain the technical skills, linguistics
students who need basic training in collaborative research in language
documentation, language teachers who wish to train themselves in basic
linguistics skills, and community language activists who work on
maintenance and revitalization projects for their communities. The
Institute consists of two weeks of intensive workshops on a broad
range of topics in linguistics, language documentation and
revitalization, education, and technology, with an emphasis on
community-based participatory research. This is followed by two weeks
of in-depth practica, where the participants apply their newly
acquired skills, and develop focused research projects working with
speakers of Indigenous languages.
