*1st Call for Proposals*

*The International Year of Indigenous Languages 2019: Perspectives**
Conference*

Purdue University Fort Wayne, Indiana

 October 31 – November 2, 2019

https://iyil2019perspectives.org/



*About the conference*

The conference will celebrate the United Nations’ *International Year of
Indigenous Languages* <https://en.iyil2019.org/> from a variety of
perspectives including *policy, education, linguistic, community, and
others*. Experts from around the globe have been invited to participate in
panels, present keynote talks, and share their work and experiences in
promoting Indigenous languages. Conference themes will include, but are not
limited to the following:



   - Community achievements and Indigenous languages


   - Community collaborations and partnerships


   - Educational policy for language revitalization and maintenance
   - Indigenous languages in the contemporary world


   - Indigenous voices in popular culture (e.g. social media, fiction,
   poetry, film, hip hop)
   - Indigenous languages and multilingualism
   - Diaspora and Indigenous language learning



While proposals that address these themes are especially encouraged,
proposals on other subjects related to Indigenous languages are also
welcomed.



In the spirit of this celebration, participants will share their
experiences and knowledge and thus bring community voices, policy voices,
and academic voices together.



*Presentation format*: Paper, poster, performance, and technology or other
type of showcase



*Presentation time slots*: Papers and performances will be allowed 30
minutes (20 minutes for presentation + 10 minutes for questions and
answers). Poster presentations will run during a determined time slot, but
posters will be displayed throughout the day of the poster presentation.
Technology or other type of showcases may choose between a presentation
time slot or an exhibit booth.



*Proposal deadline*: March 1, 2019



*Notification of acceptance:* April 1, 2019



*Proposal submission information*

   - *Language*: Proposals should be submitted in English, but
   presentations can be in any language (we ask that presenters ensure that
   translation in English is made possible in order to be accessible to all
   participants, while we cannot provide translators we will work with
   presenters as needed to this end). Because we anticipate a number of
   non-experts to participate in the conference, we ask that your proposals
   and, if accepted, your presentations and posters be devoid of technical
   jargon and directed towards a non-expert audience.
   - *Number of proposals*: Authors may submit no more than one individual
   and one co‑authored proposal, or no more than two co-authored proposals


   - *Content*: Proposals should describe the content of the presentation,
   including the intended audience and how it relates to the conference themes
   - *Length*: Please limit your proposal to 500 words, not including
   references
   - *Anonymity*: To facilitate blind peer review, please do not include
   your name or affiliation in your proposal or filename. Your proposal should
   only include your presentation title, proposal content, and list of
   references (if applicable)
   - *Format*: Please submit your abstract as a PDF file or as a Word
   document


   - *Due date*: Proposals are due by March 1, 2019
   - *Submission system*: We will use the EasyChair Proposal submission
   system. To be able to use this system, you will first need to sign up
   for a free EasyChair Author account, if you don't already have one. From
   there you can submit your abstract as an Author and make any updates or
   modifications to your proposal submission up to the submission deadline.
   Submit your proposal here to EasyChair
   <https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__easychair.org_conferences_-3Fconf-3Diyil2019&d=DwIEaQ&c=B_W-eXUX249zycySS1AyzjABMeYirU1wvo9-GmMObjY&r=9Hcv0m1oPGTrFzT5ksqW0w&m=Ydq-oJ3BReixZJ9BwkQ5l7vBJx0eBLIlb6t01LLK-ug&s=5e1MmvqA2ayFsRxbwBO3zOkzjdeOmst83sL7TMoUCGE&e=>.
