Meeting Description:
The Collaborative Language Planning Project (CLPP) will host a two-day conference on Indigenous Science and Language. It will be held on Thursday, May 18 and Friday, May 19, 2023, at the University of Montana – Missoula.
What is CLPP?
CLPP was formed with aims to enhance communication among language activists, language teachers, students, and researchers from Indigenous and non-Indigenous communities in Montana. Its goals include enriching language revitalization efforts among Indigenous communities, enhancing teachers and activists’ training experiences, and encouraging collaboration in research. To learn more about CLPP, visit the CLPP website (umt.edu/collaborative-language-planning-project).
The CLPP conference on Indigenous Science and Language seeks to broaden participation in CLPP activities to include language workers from outside of Montana, as well as to broaden the scope of disciplines addressed in CLPP activities.
The Call for Presentations will be posted on the website for the CLPP Conference on Indigenous Language and Science later this month. Visit the CLPP Conference website (in development).
