Research Interests
Sarah Shulist is a linguistic anthropologist whose research focuses on the social and political dimensions of Indigenous language revitalization. She uses collaborative ethnographic methods in order to provide support to communities engaged in revitalization efforts, particularly in contexts of multilingualism and urbanization, as well as to understand the implications of language policy and school-based language programs in shaping Indigenous-state relations. Her research has addressed Indigenous language issues in both Brazil and Canada.
