This summer school aims at introducing the concepts and practices of

three organizing universities involved in these domains.

It is co-organized by the Africa Latin America Endangered Languages (AALLED)

Lyon, the Leiden University Centre of Linguistics of the Netherland, and the
Endangered Language Project (ELAP) of The School of Oriental and African
Studies (SOAS) of the  University of London.

This international summer school on Language Documentation and Description
will include general presentations and workshops in English, with the
possibility of group discussions in French for linguists working in
francophone countries. Mornings will include keynote talks of general
interest followed by group discussions; afternoons will alternate
linguistics fieldwork sessions and workshops on new methods and technologies
used in the Documentation – Description – Archiving. Access to group
discussions and work sessions will be restricted to 50 selected
participants.

There will be evening co-events with open admission including talks by
international guests, public debates on selected topics, exhibitions on
endangered languages, and film screening. A student conference will take
place at mid-point of the summer school and one of the AALLED program major
conferences on issues of work on endangered languages organized by the
University of Lyon will take place at the end of this summer school.

This summer school will launch the collaboration of the three participating
universities within the context of developping and running together a
