Dear RNLD list colleagues,
I’m posting this message in the knowledge that many of you engage closely with the music and music-makers of the communities you work with, or collaborate with others who do.
I would like to warmly invite you to participate in a questionnaire on 'music vitality and endangerment’, loosely based on the Linguistic Vitality and Diversity Survey UNESCO carried out a few years ago.
The questionnaire asks your perspectives on the level of endangerment (or vitality) of a music genre of your choice. More information and the survey itself can be found here:

This research is part of my postdoctoral project at the University of Newcastle, Australia. The project aims to assess the usefulness of a survey instrument to assess music vitality and viability, and to help build a picture of the strength of the specific genres represented.
I would be most grateful if you would consider passing on this invitation to any colleagues who work in the area of music.
The survey will be open for the next 8-10 weeks. For more information, please contact the researcher, Dr Catherine Grant (catherine.grant at newcastle.edu.au<mailto:catherine.grant at newcastle.edu.au>).
Many thanks,
Catherine Grant
