Накратко на български

Методи за възстановяване на застрашени езици, като например греко или нахуатл, са в центъра на работата. Това помага за опазването на културното многообразие и дава достъп до традиционни знания в медицината, екологията и историята.

Minority Languages, Major Opportunities.Collaborative Research, Community Engagement and Innovative Educational Tools

The COLING project was launched in 2018 with the aim to develop innovative methods of language revitalization, with a special focus on minority and highly threatened languages and cultures which are in danger of disappearing within this or the next generation, such as Greco, Nahuatl and Mixtec. The objectives of the project include developing and sharing expert knowledge on language revitalization, which was realized in a series of workshops and summer schools where scholars, activists and other interested parties shared their best practices and worked to develop innovative revitalization methods. Furthermore, the project aims to promote engaged collaboration among academic, non-profit and community-based organizations by organizing contact, workshops and secondments for researchers in various fields and language activists from all participating institutions. A crucial aspect of the project is developing efficient teaching methodologies, teacher training, and curricula for minority languages to facilitate language learning/teaching, to promote the benefits of bi- and multilingualism and to encourage the preservation and appreciation of linguistic and cultural diversity of humanity. This includes developing an online platform focused on minority and endangered languages, online (easily accessible) dictionaries, materials and syllabi dedicated for specific languages and templates adaptable to any languages that are involved now or will join the project in the future. In the long run, the project aims to achieve a multidisciplinary and coherent understanding of opportunities enclosed in minority languages. Indigenous knowledge (including ecological knowledge), medicine, psychology, art, law, history and linguistic expertise is a potential source of alternative solutions and innovative responses to the problems of the modern world. The next step will be creating practical recommendations for language activist, NGO members and local authorities on actions that need to be taken in order to improve the level of societal and economic well-being in local communities. Those may include activities relevant to communities speaking minority and endangered languages, such as film festivals, photo competitions, expert debates, cultural events that promote embracing heritage identities and traditions.

Цел на проекта

The linguistic and cultural diversity of Europe is crucial to the capacity for problem solving and creative thinking upon which our general wellbeing and economic prosperity depend in an increasingly global and technological society. However, language diversity and immigration are often seen as threats and are challenged by discriminatory attitudes and state policies. COLING will provide justification for the strengthening and revitalization of minority languages, as well as guidelines to implement concrete programs for this purpose. The project’s objectives focus on developing and sharing expert knowledge on language revitalization programs that combine community-driven and top-down approaches; promoting engaged collaboration among academic, nonprofit and community-based institutions; developing efficient teaching methodologies, teacher training, and curricula for minority languages; establishing a new international academic program in minority studies at the partner institutions, in which the new methodologies and curricula will be employed. To this end, COLING affiliated researchers will work together to a) document and archive linguistic-cultural diversity and language practices of indigenous communities and migrants; b) explore the Trans-Atlantic perspectives and historical ties between the Americas and Europe that demonstrate the cultural resilience of indigenous peoples and the evolution of heritage cultures in mixed societies; c) develop innovative teaching methodologies through content modules in textual and digital formats and d) investigate the causative and correlative relationships between language identities, linguistic and cultural discrimination, self-confidence, trauma and well-being, and social cohesion in multilingual and multicultural contexts. COLING will organize summer schools, workshops, trainings to bring together researchers, practitioners and community members, permitting the exchange of skills, best practices and research results.
