Tools and techniques for endangered-language assessment and revitalization. Dwyer, A In Vitality and Viability of Minority Languages. October 23-24 2009, pages 1–20, 2011.

Paper abstract bibtex

A number of tools to assess the degree of language vitality have been developed, tested, and refined in an international collaborative context. This paper explores the uses and limits of these tools through case examples of assessment, including successful language revitalization and maintenance efforts. The significant role in linguistic and cultural maintenance that NGOs can play is discussed, particularly in the Tibetan context.
