ELL: Research Assistants Needed

[Luisa Maffi]

Dear Prof. Marsh, would you mind providing this list with some information
on the World Languages Survey Project? Is this the UNESCO initiative, or
something else? I think your request would benefit from some such context.
Thank you very much for illuminating the listers! Regards,
