Call for Papers at Berlin conference 2012Call for Papers are invited on the topic "Evidence for Sustainable Development" 2012 Berlin Conference on the Human Dimensions of Global Environmental Change from 5th to 6th October 2012 at Berlin. This event will be organized by the Environmental Policy Research Centre at Freie Universität Berlin in association with the EC-FP7-Network of Excellence LIAISE ('Linking Impact Assessment Instruments to Sustainability Expertise').
Endangered Language FundThe Endangered Language Fund provides grants for 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.
