2nd Saami Linguistics Symposium - program and registration

[Ove Lorentz]

2nd Saami Linguistics Symposium

University of Tromsø 19-21 November 2009

 From Thursday 19 to Saturday 21 November 2009 we are hosting the  
second workshop on the Saamic (Lapponic) languages at the University  
of Tromsø.

Invited speakers
	Zita McRobbie-Utasi, Simon Fraser University
	Pekka Sammallahti, Oulu University
	Mikael Vinka, Umeå University
  	Anna-Riitta Lindgren, University of Tromsø

This series of international symposia is meant to cover all the Saamic  
languages, and seeks to promote contact between specialists in  
particular Saamic languages and general linguists with an interest in  
Saamic. We hope the symposia will contribute to increased awareness of  
ongoing work and accelerate research in the area by facilitating the  
crystallization of new collaborative projects. We especially encourage  
younger researchers at the Masters and PhD levels to come and present  
their work.
