Meeting Description:
ConCALL was established in Spring 2014 as a professional development
conference for linguists and language educators specializing in the languages
of the Central Asian region, including both the Altaic and Eastern
Indo-European languages spoken in the region, a diverse range of languages
such as Azerbaijani, Dari, Kazakh, Mongolian, Pashto, Persian, Tajiki,
Tibetan, Turkish, Tuvan, Uyghur, Uzbek, and more!
This fall, the Center for Languages of the Central Asian Region (CeLCAR) will
be hosting the Second Conference on Central Asian Languages and Linguistics
(ConCALL-2) at Indiana University 7-9 October, 2016.
The main goal of ConCALL-2 is to bring together professionals across the
fields to focus on research into how these specific languages are represented
formally, as well as acquired by second/foreign language learners and also to
present research driven teaching methods.
This year’s theme is “Continuing the Journey: Strengthening the Central Asian
Language Community”.
Keynote Speakers for the conference include leading names in Turkic, Iranian
and Mongolic linguistics, as well as second language acquisition:
- Barış Kabak, Professor, Department of Linguistics, University of Würzburg,
Germany
- Arsalan Kahnemuyipour, Assoc Professor, Department of Linguistics,
University of Toronto, Canada
- Silvina Montrul, Professor, Department of Linguistics, University of
Illinois, USA
- György Kara, Professor, Department of Central Eurasian Studies, Indiana
University, USA
There will also be a number of other invited speakers, selected among
linguists working on Central Asian languages and linguistics.

as such can receive donations through Indiana University Foundation. We
also collect donations via eLinguistics Foundation, a registered 501(c)
Non Profit organization with the federal tax number 45-4211155. Either
way, the donations can be offset against your federal and sometimes your
state tax return (U.S. tax payers only). For more information visit the

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 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.
