Revitalising Indigenous Languages - How to Recreate a Lost Generation

This book offers a language revitalisation method that can be used with Indigenous and minority languages, especially in cases where the native language has been lost among people of a working age. It gives practical examples and a theoretical frame of reference for how to plan, organise and implement an intensive language programme.
