I¹ve forwarded your request to Dr. Dimas Bautista Iturrizaga, of the Jaqaru
group of South America.  He is an elder (just completed 92) and is working
to leave a heritage for youngerr learners, and a library of Jaqaru works for
them to read and to listen to.  There is also a young man who is just
getting involved with the work.  Among the Jaqaru speaking school teachers
they also are working in this direction.  Some of their work can be seen on
txupi.org.; some they produced as a result of in-service courses they took
with me.

Good luck with your thesis.  We will want to know of it when it is
completed.
