Taking back Our Voices: Revitalisation and Revival of Indigenous Languages (15/03/23)
Updated: Apr 27, 2023
The second panel of Lent term 2023 titled 'Taking back Our Voices: Revitalisation and Revival of Indigenous Languages' took place on Zoom on the 15th of March 2023.
The panellists presented on a range of topics, including Mongolia’s recent language policy, and the methodology behind the documentation and recording of unwritten Indigenous languages in Kenya. Through this panel, we would like to pay tribute to the United Nations International Decade of Indigenous Languages starting from 2022 to 2032.
The event hosted three distinguished speakers specialising in the study of worldwide Indigenous languages, ranging from Africa, the Americas, Inner and Southeast Asia, and Oceania, who presented and engaged in conversation - we are grateful for their participation:
Dr Ilaria Micheli, Associate Professor in Glottology and Linguistics, Department of Legal, Language, Interpreting and Translation Studies, Università degli Studi di Trieste.
Dr Brett Todd, School of Languages and Cultures, University of Sydney; Visitor Scholar at National Taiwan Normal University.
Dr Terigele Teneg, Research Affiliate, Mongolia and Inner Asia Studies Unit, University of Cambridge; The Language Centre, University of Cambridge.
The event was moderated by Natasha Rai (University of Cambridge)
Our group is grateful for the support of the Centre for Research in the Arts, Social Sciences and Humanities (CRASSH) and the Cambridge Heritage Research Centre (CHRC).
Defensive statistics can sometimes explain a football match better than the score alone. Tackles, interceptions, clearances, and blocked payid casinos australia shots can show how much pressure a team has been dealing with. At the same time, a high number in one category doesn’t automatically mean a team played well, since it can simply reflect spending more time without the ball. I like looking at several statistics together rather than focusing on one figure. The context behind the numbers usually matters more than the number itself.
