The project HEI-SAMI - Sámi language in higher education in suburban areas, coordinated by the University of Lapland's Faculty of
Education, has just been selected as a best practice example of a
Nordplus Languages project. The theme of the call for applications was
social sustainability, which, according to the funding body, the project
represented in an excellent way. The HEI-SAMI project has built a
Nordic network of universities working on teaching the endangered Sámi
language, produced teaching materials and a VR game. The project will
also result in academic publications. The project is receiving excellent
visibility, as Nordplus has published an article on the HEI-SAMI
project on its website.
