Description
1) Objective
The goal of the Endangered Language Documentation Programme (ELDP) is to support the documentation and preservation of endangered languages globally. To this end they give grants worldwide to individuals to document endangered languages. They provide funding for documentation projects led by individuals such as linguists, linguistic anthropologists and community members with skills in linguistic documentation.
They provide grants for the linguistic documentation of endangered languages worldwide. ELDP Legacy Material Grants are offered to support the digitisation and archiving of legacy materials which are a rich resource for the documentation of the world’s linguistic diversity and are in danger of being lost: recordings of endangered or moribund languages in analogue format which are not part of an existing repository.
2) Eligibility
To apply to their program you need to be affiliated with a host institution such as a university, which is a registered entity and has experience in administering grants. You should have experience in modern linguistic language documentation. Anybody with qualifications in linguistic language documentation can apply as they have no restrictions on the nationality of the applicant or on the location of the host institution. They do not fund revitalisation projects.
3) Location
Actions can take place worldwide.
4) Budget
The maximum grant is €10,000.
5) Application
Deadline for submission of application forms is 1st October 2025, 5pm CEST; Deadline for submission of support statements is 15th October 2025, 5pm CEST; Notification of results by 15 April 2026.
