Abstract
In this paper we describe the efforts and actions undertaken to promote the development of a unifying standard for the Ladin language spoken in the Dolomites (Italian Alps), called Central Ladin, within the SPELL project (a project supported by the CEC, DGXII, Programme for Regional and Minority Languages). A great part of SPELL has been, and is currently devoted to the development of linguistic resources for the local communities and institutions. We will start by discussing the main geo- and socio-cultural issues involved, then illustrate the actions taken within SPELL towards standardisation, and the development of linguistic resources for the standard languageI documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
