Congratulations, Jordan! An ongoing challenge to language sustainability for the vast majority of languages around the world is the lack of access to the skills training needed to fully exercise communities' rights to linguistic self-determination.
This project brings together experienced Intergenerational Language Sustainability (ILS) skills training practitioners, emerging scholars, and organizations from across the world to research and plan new ILS skills training initiatives in partnership with their local language communities.
