TitleCall for Workshops: CoLang 2016 Institute on Collaborative Language Research
Body

From http://www.alaska.edu/colang2016/

The Institute on Collaborative Language Research (CoLang) will be held on the campus of the University of Alaska Fairbanks in 2016. The institute is designed to provide an opportunity for community language activists and linguists to receive training in community-based language documentation and revitalization.

The Institute consists of two parts: two weeks of intensive workshops followed by a three-week Practicum in field linguistics in which students work hands-on with speakers of an endangered language. CoLang 2016 will have, but not be limited to, two major themes: languages of Alaska and language archiving.

Workshops -- June 20-July 1, 2016
Practicum -- July 5-22, 2016
