The Nyae Nyae Village Schools Project (VSP) in Namibia, a primary-grade, mother-tongue literacy undertaking, is a community-based project with professional linguistic credentials. Begun in 1990 and ongoing, the VSP made possible the formation of the Ju/'hoan Transcription Group (JTG) in 2002. Local JTG members received computer literacy and transcription training with ELAN software. They participated in the creation of a national literacy education curriculum in Namibia as well as Ju/'hoan enrichment materials, drawn from their own traditions, for English-medium schools in the Ju/'hoan-speaking area. The JTG provides a case study of a community-based language documentation project that is being used as an example by other San and Khoe language groups in southern Africa. JTG transcribers process, publish, and archive verbal materials ranging from folklore and oral history to political meetings and local creative writing. A growing international reputation has brought them recent work with archaeologists, anthropologists, and filmmakers from around the world. At the same time, they are amassing a community archive available to Ju/'hoan-speaking students and their teachers, leaders, and fellow community members.
