Chin Languages Workshop
The Chin Languages Research Project (CLRP) is an IU collaboration with members of Indiana’s Chin (Burmese) refugee community. Hailing mainly from Chin State in western Burma, the Indianapolis Chin community (appr. 32,000 people) possesses profound linguistic diversity, and Chin students and languages are well represented in Indiana’s schools. The National Consortium for Teaching about Asia is offering an opportunity for P-12 educators to learn about language diversity and endangerment, diaspora communities, and how these issues affect Indiana’s Chin community.
