About Us
SEL, the Society for Endangered and Lesser-known Languages was founded by Dr. Kavita Rastogi in July 2011. It aims to revitalize endangered languages by bringing likeminded people together to document such languages, describe their grammars, and prepare dictionaries and pedagogical material for the native communities. It was formally registered as a society under the Societies Registration Act in March 2015.
Journal
