Foundation for Endangered Languages: CALL FOR PROPOSALS

The Foundation for Endangered Languages is now accepting proposals for projects of work that will support, enable or assist the protection or promotion of one or more endangered languages. These endangered languages may be anywhere in the world.

Deadline: February 29, 2008

The Foundation for Endangered Languages is committed to raise awareness of endangered languages and support revitalisation and preservation of endangered languages through all channels and media. The Foundation awards grants to project that further its aims as an when the funds permit. The Foundation’s funds remain limited this year and only an exceptional award will be greater than US $1,000. Smaller proposals stand a better chance of funding

The research projects focusing on the revitalisation of the endangered languages and support the use of endangered languages in various spheres of community life (home, education, cultural and social life) will be given priority. Projects restricted to language documentation would not be eligible for funding this year.
