It seems both a lifetime ago and yet only yesterday. And so much has happened in just the year since I wrote the Foreword to the Zero Project Report 2014. The Zero Project itself has grown by leaps and bounds. The Zero Project Confer- ence is just one example. In February last year we held our first ever conference at the headquarters of the United Nations here in Vienna. At the three-day event, focusing on accessibility, we were honoured to welcome 360 delegates from 50 countries around the world. This year, again at the UN, over 400 experts and other concerned individuals joined us from 60 countries to focus on “Independent Living and Political Participation,” and to discuss the newest set of Innovative Policies and Innovative Practices for persons with disabilities. This is a special year for the Zero Project for another reason: co-funding by the PROGRESS program of the European Union enables us for the first to carry the Zero Project to local decision-makers in Austria, the project’s home country. Over the coming months we will organize nine Zero Project Austria conferences through- out the country, will produce a separate report that is targeted towards the Austrian situation, and will create a website dedicated exclusively to the Austrian context. Next year we will complete our first circle of research: After researching Employ- ment (2013), Accessibility (2014) and Independent Living and Political Participation (2015), in 2016 the focus of our research will be Education. After that, we will re-visit Employment, giving us also the opportunity to analyse change and change processes for the first time.

  • 1. a Survey of African Languages Harald Hammarström
    1. A survey of African languages Harald Hammarström 1.1. Introduction The African continent harbors upwards of 2,000 spoken indigenous languages – more than a fourth of the world’s total. Using ISO 639-3 language/dialect divisions and including extinct languages for which evidence exists, the tally comes to 2,169. The main criterion for the ISO 639-3 language identification is mutual intelligibil- ity, but these divisions are not infrequently conflated with sociopolitical criteria. This causes the tally to be higher than if the language/dialect division were to be based solely on intelligibility. Based solely on mutual intelligibility, the number would be approximately 85 % of the said figure (Hammarström 2015: 733), thus around 1,850 mutually unintelligible languages in Africa. A lower count of 1,441 is obtained by treating dialect chains whose endpoints are not mutually intelligible as one and the same language (Maho 2004). The amount of information available on the language situation varies across different areas of Africa, but the entire continent has been surveyed for spoken L1 languages on the surface at least once. However, so-called “hidden” languages that escaped earlier surveys continue to be discovered every year. These are all languages that are spoken by a (usually aging) fraction of a population who other- wise speak another (already known) language. The least surveyed areas of Africa include Northern Nigeria, Eastern Chad, South Sudan and various spots in the Republic of Congo, the Democratic Republic of Congo and Angola. The situation is entirely different with respect to sign languages (cf. Padden 2010: 19).

William Fulbright Foreign Scholarship Board The Fulbright Program is one of America’s most valuable and effective means for increasing mutual understanding among the people of the world. In a time when public diplomacy has taken on heightened importance and when there is a renewed appreciation for the study of foreign languages and the need for cultures to become better known and understood, international education exchanges are increasingly valued for their lasting contributions. The Fulbright Program stands out among these as the flagship exchange program, attracting new generations of students, scholars, teachers and professionals, even as its distinguished alumni engage in ongoing activities that insure the Fulbright legacy. LETTER FROM THE CHAIR 2 In recent years, an important priority for the J. William Fulbright Foreign Scholarship Board (FSB) has been recruitment and outreach activities that engage wider audiences J. WILLIAM FULBRIGHT FOREIGN SCHOLARSHIP BOARD 4 to achieve increased access and greater diversification of the Fulbright Program.
