The main aim of this community is to provide access to empirical data available for research in the ELDIAdata databank. The ELDIAdata is a digital databank containing all empirical materials collected during the EU FP-7 research project ELDIA (European Language Diversity for All, 2010–2013). The empirical data uploaded to this community were collected in eight countries from speakers of thirteen Finno-Ugric minority languages.

This community provides access to empirical data available for research in the ELDIAdata databank. The ELDIAdata is a digital databank containing all empirical materials collected during the EU FP-7 research project ELDIA (European Language Diversity for All). ELDIA was an international, interdisciplinary project coordinated by the University of Mainz, Germany, and conducted by experts in applied linguistics and sociolinguistics, law, social studies, and statistics in 2010–2013. The overarching aim was to contribute to a better understanding of how local, national, and international (vehicular) languages interact in contemporary Europe, and to enhance the reconceptualization, re-evaluation, and promotion of individual and societal multilingualism.

The empirical data uploaded to this community were collected in eight countries from speakers of thirteen Finno-Ugric minority languages, namely: Meänkieli, Kven, Finnish in Sweden, Estonian in Finland, Estonian in Germany, Karelian in Finland and in Russia, Veps, Võro, Seto, North Sámi in Norway, Hungarian in Austria, and Hungarian in Slovenia.
