- Networking— we facilitate international networking through our active email discussion list and Facebook group, support for the Transient Languages blog, and links to other blogs and networks. Archived RNLD discussions are publicly accessible and searchable through the Linguist List.
- Resources— we disseminate information about conferences, funding opportunities, education and training programs, policies, publications, film, radio and television, news, and the methods and technologies needed to document, archive, revitalise and maintain indigenous languages.
- Training— we partner with indigenous communities and organisations to develop capacity in language documentation and revitalisation. Our flexible training materials and practices ensure that the skills which people gain are used, retained and shared more widely within a community.
- Train-the-trainer— we promote autonomy and sustainability through workshop methods which mentor skilled language workers in becoming trainers in linguistic documentation and revitalisation methods within their own communities.
- Advocacy— we advocate on issues such as bilingual education, indigenous literacy, language policies and recognition for Indigenous peoples, raise awareness through public events on occasions such as International Mother Language Day, and organize informal gatherings for linguists and community language activists.
