Dakota and Ojibwe Languages Symposium

Hosted by the Minnesota Indian Affairs Council’s Language Revitalization Working Group, partnering with the Minnesota Humanities Center, the goal of the symposium is to bring people working in Dakota and Ojibwe languages revitalization together. We will celebrate successes, highlight what is currently going on in the field, help shape future language revitalization efforts, and elevate the visibility of Indigenous languages throughout the state of Minnesota.
