The Stabilizing Indigenous Languages Steering committee invites interested individuals and groups to give presentations at SILC this year, either in the form of a 15-minute talk (or less), a 1 1/2 hour workshop, or else to join one of our suggested panels, which will be 1 1/2 hours in length.

Suggested panels include:

--Master-apprentice programs
--Immersion schools
--Archives and intellectual property rights
--Developing and using new writing systems
--Revitalizing languages without speakers

In addition, time and space will be set aside for the showing of films
on language loss and language revitalization.
