It examines why the fields remain separate, the mutual benefits of closer dialogue, and what changes are needed to create an ethical engagement space between them.

Regina  \nAbstract  \nThis conceptual paper examines the relationship between two academic areas: applied linguistics and Indigenous language revitalization. While the two domains have shared interests, they tend to operate separately. This paper examines: 1) possible reasons for this separateness; 2) mutually beneficial reasons to be in closer conversation and 3) changes necessary for the creation of an ethical space of engagement (Ermine, 2007) between these academic areas. We write from distinct positions: Belinda, a nēhiyaw woman working in Indigenous language resurgence and Andrea, a white settler woman working in language issues related to settler-colonialism. Drawing from our joint and individual experiences, we explore how these research fields can complement each other as well as intersect to create richer interdisciplinary knowledge.  \nRésumé  \nCet article conceptuel examine la relation entre deux domaines académiques : la linguistique appliquée et la revitalisation des langues autochtones.

If we want to live in a different present, we have to center Indigeneity and allow it to change us. (Simpson, 2017, p. 20)  \nThis conceptual article began as a conference paper for a symposium designed to explore the relationship between the fields of Indigenous language revitalization (ILR) and applied linguistics. The panel was part of the annual conference organized by the Canadian Association of Applied Linguistics. Our contribution to the panel was sparked by our experiences conducting Indigenous language revitalization research together and also from listening to a University of Victoria podcast that featured Onowa McIvor, nehinaw (Swampy Cree) and Scottish-Canadian scholar and recognized expert in the field of Indigenous language revitalization. In this podcast, McIvor (2018) explains that ILR had developed largely through the grassroots language revitalization initiatives of Indigenous language activists and communities and mostly in isolation from second or additional language education, areas typically associated with applied linguistics. As a field, applied linguistics can be understood as a “multidisciplinary approach to answering the practical problems presented to learners and speakers of language”(Penfield & Tucker, 2011, p.296), in areas such as language learning and teaching, bilingual and multilingual education, literacy in schools and other places, language planning and policy, forensic linguistics, translation and interpreting, assessment and testing, technology and l","cbCaisifp8XYdBkB","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaisifp8XYdBkB","pdf",254971,18,"English","# Abstract\n# Applied Linguistics and Indigenous Language Revitalization\n## Autonomy and independent interdisciplinary space\n# Research origins and rationale for closer engagement","[{\"question\":\"Why does the paper focus on an ethical space of engagement between applied linguistics and Indigenous language revitalization?\",\"answer\":\"It aims to explain what changes are required for the two fields to collaborate more closely in an ethically grounded way, rather than continuing to operate separately.\"},{\"question\":\"What reasons does the paper suggest for the fields’ lack of close connection?\",\"answer\":\"It addresses possible causes for the separateness, highlighting how ILR has developed largely through grassroots initiatives separate from areas typically linked to applied linguistics.\"},{\"question\":\"How does the paper describe the role of community in Indigenous language revitalization research?\",\"answer\":\"It emphasizes that ILR recognizes the central role of community and views revitalization as emerging from ongoing engagement, connection, and lifelong learning on homelands.\"}]","Indigenous Language Revitalization and Applied Linguistics: Conceptualizing an Ethical Space of Engagement Between Academic Fields | PDF",1792082706,45]
