About the event
he Minnesota Indian Affairs Council’s Language Revitalization Working Group, partnering with the Minnesota Humanities Center, is hosting the 3rd Annual Dakota and Ojibwe Languages Symposium. This year the symposium will be held February 29th and March 1st 2024 at Treasure Island Resort and Casino. The goal of the symposium is to bring people working in Dakota and Ojibwe languages revitalization together. We will use this time to celebrate successes, highlight the current state of the field, shape future language revitalization efforts, and elevate the visibility of Indigenous languages throughout the state of Minnesota. By bringing people together, we hope this symposium serves as an opportunity for individuals to network with other Dakota and Ojibwe language professionals.  If you're interested in leading an in-person session for other symposium participants, please contact skyler.kuczaboski@state.mn.us. Sessions will be approximately 45 minutes long. Proposals are due November 3rd. All applicants will be notified of the planning committee’s decision on their proposal by November 17th.
If you have any questions, please email skyler.kuczaboski@state.mn.us or call/text 651-304-4149.
