Meeting Description:

After an enforced hiatus due to the Covid-19 pandemic, the Cambridge
Conference on Language Endangerment is now back for its tenth year!
Themes it has explored within language endangerment include: language
policy and planning, language documentation, the role of new
technologies, orthography development, the role of schools, new
speakers, revitalisation strategies and language change. On this tenth
anniversary of the conference, we invite participants to consider
these themes and the way in which they will develop over the coming
decade. What challenges lie ahead for endangered language communities,
activists and academics engaged in reversing language shift? What
theoretical frameworks are proving most successful in terms of the
analysis of the linguistic structure of endangered languages? How will
changing attitudes amongst speakers affect the success of
language revitalisation? How will policy-makers shape language
legislation and respond to the concerns of endangered language speech
communities? Has the potential of new technologies been effectively
engaged to support the documentation, description
and revitalisation of endangered languages or has the role of these
technologies been overplayed? How has the pandemic affected our field
and endangered language communities? What, if any, is the lasting
impact of Covid-19?

Call for Papers:

Paper format: 20 minutes + 10 minutes for questions

Abstracts of 200 words maximum to be submitted via email to
the organisers  (Prof Mari Jones, mcj11 at cam.ac.uk ; Dr Oliver Mayeux,

document your name and your affiliation as you would like to see them
