[Lingtyp] CfP: Language documentation and local ecological knowledge: Interdisciplinary approaches (Aix-en-Provence, 14-16 December 2026)

[Sonja Riesberg]

Dear colleagues,

Full call for papers in the *attached file*.

We are pleased to invite contributions to our Workshop *Language 
documentation and local ecological knowledge: Interdisciplinary 
approaches* that will take place as part of the *3e Rencontre annuelle 
Langues & Langage à la croisée des Disciplines (LLcD)*, 14-16 December 
2026, Aix-en-Provence, France. The aim of our workshop is to reflect on 
how interdisciplinary collaborations between linguistics, 
anthropologists and biologists can lead to meaningful and lasting 
outcomes as well as to create an opportunity to exchange on innovative 
research methods and best practices for research on local ecological 
knowledge in remote communities, especially in the context of rapid 
linguistic, cultural and ecological changes. While this workshop 
primarily addresses documentary linguists who have called on biologists, 
we would also be interested to hear of biologists that sought 
collaborations with linguists and anthropologists to gain better 
insights into local biological knowledge and conceptualisations.
