UPDATE – April 28, 2022: We’ve just released the latest version of The Language Sustainability Toolkit (version 2.0). It was created as a collaborative project between Living Tongues Institute for Endangered Languages and our colleagues at Wikitongues. It is available below for free download in three formats: Letter, A4 and Mobile Format.
Here is a quote from this project:
“In this toolkit, you’ll learn about techniques that you can use to document your language, promote your language, and organize your community to speak your language. You’ll also learn about success stories from around the world.”
Both Living Tongues and Wikitongues share the goal of sustaining and revitalizing languages for future generations of speakers. With those common aspirations in mind, our teams pooled resources together to create this toolkit for language sustainability.
It is a roadmap that helps identify where languages are on the endangerment continuum and what strategies and approaches are available to help revitalize their languages. It also provides examples of success stories that may inspire endangered language activists around the world.
