• Author(s) / Creator(s)

  • Supporting Indigenous Language Revitalization (SILR)

• The purpose of this resource is to highlight the significance of Indigenous language learning and provide information and resources to support language advocates, educators, speakers, aspiring learners, and leaders in their revitalization efforts. This resource acknowledges that pathways to language learning require more than resources and materials. Connection and conversation are essential in fostering healthy relationships and reinforcing a more profound sense of community and identity associated with wellness. Engaging in language learning builds meaningful relationships with Elders, Knowledge Keepers, language speakers, and fellow learners. These connections and conversations provide a deeper understanding of the cultural significance of the language and its role in the community and a greater appreciation for the spirit and traditions embedded within.
