Workshop paper

Experience and Practice Working with Indigenous Communities

Abstract

In this manuscript I describe my current work on co-designing and co-developing with Indigenous communities digital applications and tools to support writing in endangered Indigenous languages. The manuscript first presents the PROLIND project, which is developing and deploying technologies to foster use of Indigenous languages. Next, it discusses specific challenges for the design process in such contexts. Finally, it provides an outline of the intended activities with Indigenous communities in 2025.
