The Endangered Language Fund has launched the 2013 Request for Proposals to provide grants normally for a period of one year period, though extensions may be applied for.
The grants are given in the area of language maintenance and linguistic field work. The work most likely to be funded is that which serves both the native community and the field of linguistics. Work which has immediate applicability to one group and more distant application to the other will also be considered. Publishing subventions are a low priority, although they will be considered. Proposals can originate in any country. The language involved must be in danger of disappearing within a generation or two. Endangerment is a continuum, and the location on the continuum is one factor in our funding decisions.
Eligibility
Researchers and language activists from any country are eligible to apply. Awards can be made to institutions, but no administrative (overhead, indirect) costs are covered.
How to Apply
There is no form, but the information requested below should be included in the first page of an electronic document, preferably a PDF file. Applications must be submitted electronically.
Deadline
Applications must be received by April 22th, 2013. Decisions will be delivered by the end of May, 2013.
