Dear all,
Although not strictly/exclusively German-related, I hope this upcoming conference may be of interest to members of this list:
‘Our languages’: exploring collaborations in Language Education
Lancaster University, 28 September 2019
This ‘think tank’-style conference, organised by Sascha Stollhans and Dr Elena Polisca, is part of a project that explores cross-sector collaborations in language education in the UK. We invite primary and secondary teachers, academics,
language professionals, policy makers, and anyone with an interest in language education to discuss ideas to tackle the ‘language crisis’ in the UK, and explore potential cross-sector collaborations. The event will result in the publication of open-access
position papers with recommendations for future developments in British language education.
The project and conference is funded by the
"Language Acts and Worldmaking" strand of the AHRC Open World Research Initiative.
Confirmed keynote speakers include:
Attendance is free but registration is required by 16 September. Further information and registration:
