From Documentation to Revitalization: Leveraging Linguistic Research for Language Reclamation

Description:
Language reclamation, as defined by Leonard (2012), is “a larger effort by a community to claim its right to speak a language and to set associated goals in response to community needs and perspectives.” This presentation examines a community-centered approach to linguistic research design that prioritizes language reclamation goals, resulting in language revitalization projects that are more applicable and culturally responsive to community needs and values.
