Celebrating 20 Years of NILI
Local to Global Perspectives on Language Revitalization and Documentation
June 30-July 2, 2017
University of Oregon

The Northwest Indian Language Institute is twenty years old! Along with the UO Department of Linguistics and colleagues of the Laboratoire Dynamique Du Langage (DDL) of the Université de Lyon in France, NILI is planning a conference titled Celebrating 20 Years of NILI–Local to Global Perspectives on Language Revitalization and Documentation. Participants will look at what has been learned over the past 20 years, and the promises of the next twenty years and more. The conference will address both language revitalization and language documentation topics, including evolving practices, collaboration, training, post-vernacular languages and issues of vitality. The conference will also examine the global context of NILI’s work, and global revitalization and documentation in general.
