Language Legacies, Call for Proposals (2020): 

The Endangered Language Fund provides grants for language documentation and
revitalization, and for linguistic fieldwork. The work most likely to be
funded is that which serves both the native community and the field of
linguistics, although projects which have immediate applicability to one group
and more distant applicability to the other will also be considered. Support
for publication is a low priority, although it will be considered. Proposals
can originate in any country. The language involved must be in danger of
disappearing within a generation or two. Endangerment is a continuum, and the
location on the continuum is one factor in our funding decisions.

Eligible expenses include consultant fees, equipment, travel, etc. Overhead is
not allowed. Grants are for a one-year period, though extensions may be
applied for. We expect grants in this round to be less than $4,000, and to
average about $2,000.

Due to a generous contribution from an anonymous donor, combined with matching
donations, the Endangered Language Fund is pleased to be able to expand the
scope of its invited proposals through the MKARL Fund (in honor of Michael
Krauss) to include work on archival initiatives and efforts. In particular, we
encourage proposals that focus on the creation of archives, depositing
material to archives, accessing archives, and the hosting of and/or attendance
at workshops, seminars, or institutes that offer training and support on
archiving activities and initiatives.

Please note that the guidelines, and the types of projects funded has changed
with this cycle. If you have questions, please contact us at elf at yale.edu.
