NSF Dynamic Language Infrastructure - NEH Documenting Endangered Languages
This funding partnership between the National Science Foundation (NSF) and the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) supports projects to develop and advance knowledge concerning dynamic language infrastructure in the context of endangered human languages—languages that are both understudied
and at risk of falling out of use.
Made urgent by the imminent loss of roughly half of the approximately 7000 currently used languages, this effort aims to exploit advances in information technology to build computational infrastructure for endangered language research.
The program supports projects that contribute to data management and archiving, and to the development of the next generation of researchers.
Funding can support fieldwork and other activities relevant to the digital recording, documentation and analysis, and archiving of endangered language data, including the preparation of lexicons, grammars, text samples, and databases.
Funding will be available in the form of one- to three-year senior research grants, fellowships from six to twelve months, and conference proposals.
Note:
a conference proposal should generally be submitted at least a year in advance of the scheduled date of the conference.
For additional information about creating and submitting conference proposals, please refer to Chapter II.
