Meeting Description: 

The theme of this year's congress is Voices around the World. In keeping with
this theme, we recognize that Translation and Interpretation (T&I )plays a
pivotal role in the development of communication between speakers of different
languages around world. Therefore, we have specifically designated one day (23
July 2008) as a forum to bring together leading researchers, educators,
practitioners and students to discuss current issues and research projects in
the field of T&I. 

The theme of the congress means that there will be a considerable number of
contributions to T & I studies and that participants in the Congress will come
from all major regions around the world, bringing a rich range of languages to
the discussion, including Chinese, French, Japanese, Korean, Spanish and
English, to name a few.

The program for the full day is as follows:

Morning

Plenary

Keynote sessions & workshops
15 minute keynote sessions followed by 45 minute workshops from leading
academics and practitioners to discuss research projects and current issues.

Afternoon

New Voices
20 minute sessions for research students to report on their projects and receive
feedback from senior academics, practitioners and colleagues.

Parallel papers
30-40 minute parallel papers on current issues and research projects in the
field. Abstracts submission guidelines to follow.

The LINGUIST List is under the umbrella of Eastern Michigan University and as such 
can receive donations through the EMU Foundation, which is a registered 501(c) 
Non Profit organization. Our Federal Tax number is 38-6005986. These donations 
can be offset against your federal and sometimes your state tax return (U.S. tax 
payers only). For more information visit the IRS Web-Site, or contact your 
financial advisor.

Many companies also offer a gift matching program, such that they will match any 
gift you make to a non-profit organization. Normally this entails your contacting 
your human resources department and sending us a form that the EMU Foundation fills 
in and returns to your employer. This is generally a simple administrative procedure 
that doubles the value of your gift to LINGUIST, without costing you an extra penny. 
Please take a moment to check if your company operates such a program.

Thank you very much for your support of LINGUIST!
