Workshop on Africa's Response to Language Endangerment 

Date: 02-Dec-2010 - 04-Dec-2010 
Location: University of Florida, Gainesville, USA 
Contact: Prof. James Essegbey 
Contact Email: essegbey at ufl.edu 
Meeting URL: 
http://www.africa.ufl.edu/News_Events/endangeredlanguages.html 

Linguistic Field(s): Language Documentation 

Meeting Description: 

The central goal of this workshop is to bring together experts working on
language documentation to debate whether language endangerment in Africa 
differs from that in other parts of the world, and whether such differences merit 
an Africa-specific approach to documentation.

Apart from the excellent papers that will be presented at the workshop, the
panel discussions and students' sessions, the organizing committee and the
Center for African Studies at the University of Florida have also arranged other 
exciting events to make your stay in the 'Gator Country' memorable and truly 
rewarding.
