Cambridge Endangered Languages and Cultures Group (CELC)

Cambridge Endangered Languages and Cultures Group (CELC) We remain committed to the dissemination of research findings from language and cultural documentation research to a wider public and to source communities.

The Cambridge Group for Endangered Languages and Cultures (CELC) pursues an interdisciplinary approach to the theory, methodology and practice of endangered language and culture documentation. The group brings together linguists and anthropologists to create a forum where scholars interested in linguistic diversity and cultural heritage from Cambridge and other academic institutions can exchange ideas and discuss common concerns.
