The University of Latvia Livonian Institute focuses on revitalising the
Livonian language as one of its study and work areas. In this talk, we
will focus on our experience collaborating with the community. We will
share our findings on the sociolinguistic and linguistic elements that
influence the role of language in self-identification and defining a
community. It includes who the actors are and what the channels and
actions are for language maintenance in the modern world, as expected by
language and culture carriers.
