The two-day workshop will consist of a mixture of plenary talks
and case studies of situations where ideological issues have
been raised in endangered languages research.
At the end of each day the participants will meet as a group to

the workshop presentations and question times.
Parallel sessions will be running on the Saturday afternoon.
