Call for Papers

*Pandemic Pressures on Linguistic Diversity: Rethinking Migrant and 
Minority Language Maintenance and Education After COVID-19*

This Research Topic, hosted by /Frontiers/, examines the longer-term 
sociolinguistic consequences of the pandemic for minoritized languages 
in diverse multilingual settings. Contributions may address (but are not 
limited to) language maintenance and shift, intergenerational 
transmission, digital language practices, language education, linguistic 
resilience, and community strategies during and after the pandemic. 
Studies comparing languages, language-contact settings, and 
sociolinguistic contexts are particularly relevant, including both 
languages maintained /in situ/ and languages brought by mobile populations.

We especially seek studies of minority and Indigenous languages, 
including endangered and historically marginalised regional languages.
