Meeting Description:

CBLRAA 2019 is a workshop organized in conjunction with the annual meeting of
the Society for the Study of the Indigenous Languages of the Americas (SSILA).
The goal of the workshop is to promote and proliferate strategies for
documenting and revitalizing American indigenous languages by finding ways to
improve communication among community members, researchers, and institutions
who engage in community-based language work. At the workshop we will discuss
differences and similarities among the community-based approaches being
applied, ethical and practical issues that arise, what we can learn from one
another, and how we can maintain channels of communication and collaboration
in the future.

The purpose of the CBLRAA workshop is to improve communication among community
members, researchers, and institutions who engage in community-based language
work across the Americas. At the workshop we will discuss differences and
similarities among the community-based approaches being applied, ethical and
practical issues that arise, what we can learn from one another, and how we
can maintain channels of communication and collaboration in the future. We
especially want to hear from Indigenous and Latin American researchers and
community members about these themes. The workshop will involve short
presentations by invited speakers as well as small and large-group activities
meant to generate discussion. The workshop will be multilingual with support
for speakers of Spanish, Portuguese, and English. If support in another
language is needed, please contact us (cblraa2019 at gmail.com) and we will do
our best to provide it. 

The workshop will take place in New York City on January 2 and 3, 2019 before
the start of the annual meetings of the Linguistic Society of America (LSA)
(https://www.linguisticsociety.org/event/lsa-2019-annual-meeting) and the
Society for the Study of the Indigenous Languages of the Americas (SSILA)
(https://ssila.org). 

You are eligible to apply as a self-funded participant if 1) you are actively
involved in documentation, revitalization, reclamation or other type of
project involving an Indigenous language or languages of the Americas; and 2)
you have some formal or informal training in linguistics. 

Preference will be given to applicants 1) whose participation is most likely
to lead U.S.-based researchers to reflect on and reevaluate their own
practices, 2) whose participation in the workshop is most likely to lead to
new collaborations to document, revitalize, and maintain an Indigenous
language or languages of the Americas, and 3) who are from regions or
communities otherwise not represented at the workshop or SSILA meeting. 

Please contact us with any questions: cblraa2019 at gmail.com. 

This project is supported by the National Science Foundation Documenting
Endangered Languages Program (BCS-1833155).
