**ABOUT THE CONFERENCE
The Interdisciplinary Centre for Social and Language Documentation (CIDLeS)
cordially invites scholars working on endangered languages in Europe and on
Language Documentation to join us at the International Conference on
Endangered Languages in Europe. The 2-day International Conference aims to
improve the discussion about linguistic diversity in Europe and to provide
an interdisciplinary forum in which scholars from Language Documentation,
Language Technology and others working on European endangered languages can
exchange ideas and techniques on language documentation, archiving, and
revitalization and to reflect on language policy issues. The second day of
the Conference will have two special panels: one focussing on the
endangered languages in the Iberian Peninsula and another one, a round
table, dedicated to the theme "new speakers of minority/endangered
languages".    ****

The Conference is organized by the Interdisciplinary Centre for Social and
Language Documentation in Minde, Portugal. ****

The Conference will include a broad socio-cultural program related to the
theme “Endangered Languages in Europe” with the aim of promoting
intercultural exchange and reinforcing the relationship between linguists
and language communities. On the 19th of October 2013 there will be a
“Language Fair” will take place, in which several members of endangered
language communities in Europe will present their languages and cultures
through book displays and cultural events (music, theatre, movies,
exhibitions, etc.). On the evenings of 18th and 19th October there will be
an “Endangered Languages Music Festival”. ****
