Resources for Language Planning

AFN Resources for Language Policies and Planning 

Whether your First Nation is at the beginning of your language revitalization journey, or has already begun it, we know this work can be challenging. This toolkit provides an overview of various resources and tools that might be useful to your First Nation as you set language revitalization goals, and think about what is most needed for you to achieve them.

It is packed with useful information, resource lists and templates for community use.
