Dear Lee, This is a fairly modest project which catalogues administrative terms for the ethnic Mixe communities in Oaxaca, Mexico. It might be of interest to you: Catálogo de competencias y normas en los sistemas de cargos ayuuk mixe (1998-2002) - http://www.iia.unam.mx/cat-MIXES/default.php Best wishes, Isabel

A really interesting project I recently had a chance to hear about is arcticIQ from Calgary. This is a fairly major multi-technology project working with the Inuit in the Canadian arctic.
Pete Dawson, cc'd here, since I don't think has joined globalDH yet, is the PI on that.

I'm in the process of trying to collect information (I don't even want to call it data, because I don't think there's even enough to call it that) about DH projects that involve minority languages or ethnic groups. I'm thinking about Gaelic or Welsh in the UK, Catalan or Basque on the continent, or indigenous languages here in the Americas, etc, etc, etc.
I've been browsing the Around the DH World document and noticed that there aren't many of these kinds of projects listed. Of course, this doesn't mean that they don't exist, just that they aren't being promoted/recognized.

I'm particularly interested in this because it does closely seem to mirror the experience of translation and world literature (the 3% rule, as they say). Are we just recreating the same materials that are already available, just in a digital form, or are we creating new resources and knowledge through recovery work?
Any suggestions or thoughts would be welcome.
Thanks everyone. Sorry for the monolingual nature of this email.
