<p class="MsoNormal">The theme of IGALA11 in London in 2020 is <b>Language and the Geopolitics of Gender</b>. With this theme, we aim to highlight the geopolitical dimensions of language, gender and sexuality scholarship. Our goal is to showcase research on
configurations of language, gender and sexuality from a diverse range of cultural, linguistic and geographical contexts, and in particular work that engages with issues of coloniality, globalisation, migration, (trans)nationalism and/or modernity. We also
aim to encourage discussions of methodological and epistemological diversity, and of the broader dynamics of knowledge creation and dissemination in our field.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">SECOND CALL FOR PAPERS<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><a name="_Hlk6336396"></a><a name="_Hlk6393321"><span style="mso-bookmark:_Hlk6336396"><u>Regular Papers and Posters</u>: Abstracts are invited for papers (oral presentations and posters) on original, unpublished research related to the
study of language, gender and/or sexuality. We particularly encourage submissions related to the conference theme. We welcome diversity in theoretical and methodological approaches and in the linguistic and cultural contexts considered. Oral presentations
will be 20 minutes (with 5 minutes for questions and discussion). Posters will be on display in a dedicated 2-hour poster session.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-bookmark:_Hlk6393321"><span style="mso-bookmark:_Hlk6336396"><u>Panels</u>: We also invite proposals for a limited number of organised panels that speak directly to the theme of Language and the Geopolitics of Gender. Proposals
may be for panels that are single-length (2 hours with 4 speaker slots) or double-length (4 hours with 8 speaker slots). Proposals for panels should include an overall description of the panel topic (max. 500 words) plus abstracts for each proposed paper (max.
500 words each). Panels will be required to keep to the regular conference timetable of 30-minute slots (20-minute talks + 5 minutes for discussion + 5 minutes for changeover).
