This grant, a partnership between the National Science Foundation (NSF) and the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH), supports projects focused on developing and advancing knowledge of endangered human languages. Addressing the urgent threat to roughly half of the 7000 global languages, this initiative leverages information technology to build essential computational infrastructure for research. It funds activities related to data management, archiving, and cultivating the next generation of researchers. Support is available for fieldwork, digital recording, and the creation of vital resources like lexicons, grammars, text samples, and databases. Funding options include one-to-three-year project grants, up to twelve-month fellowships, and doctoral dissertation research improvement grants.
