Dear colleagues 

Endangered Languages Week will be held at the School of Oriental 
and African Studies in London from 1st to 11th May 2012. This year's 
focus is on Language, Performance and Culture. We will present films, 
talks, and performances about endangered languages and cultures 
over the week. Bob Holman, poet, film maker and co-director of the 
Endangered Language Alliance in New York City will present aspects 
of his work. Diaspora communities in London (including Sherpa, 
Kurdish and Maori singing groups) will also perform.

Open Day will be held on 9th May 11am to 5pm in The Rausing Room 
(R201).

For more details of all the events and programme of activities
