“This book provides hope for educators, policy makers, and researchers in the field … . The depth of information provided on the process of implementing CBR would be of great value for researchers in the field of language policy development, as it highlights the importance of working with community partners in order to co-create realistic opportunities for change.” (Reshara Alviarez, Language Policy, Vol. 19, 2020)
