About the Project

Project term: April, 2024–March, 2027

A large set of documents related to the Ainu language were donated to ILCAA in 2014, and specialists in various disciplines, including linguists, historians, musicologists, and archivists, will collaborate on interdisciplinary studies to explore improved methods of document archiving, document analysis (comprehension of their content and mutual relations among them) to maintain the relationship between the documents and bereaved local communities, human rights protections, document preservation, and finally, the publication, promotion, and utilization of documents.
