Meeting Description:

The inaugural Central Asia Language and Education (CALE) conference will take
place May 14-15, 2020, at KIMEP University in Almaty, Kazakhstan, and welcomes
researchers working on language education, sociolinguistics, linguistics,
second language acquisition, TESOL, and related disciplines. Although the
conference overall has a special interest in how issues of language and
language education play out in Central Asia, papers do not need to be related
to Central Asia, and researchers do not need to be based in the region.

Plenary Speakers:

Umberto Ansaldo, University of Sydney
Lisa Lim, University of Sydney
Mukul Saxena, Nazarbayev University


Call for Papers:

Abstract submissions are invited to the inaugural Central Asia Language and
Education Conference (CALE) to take place at KIMEP University in Almaty,

Individual paper presentations should report on original research by one or
more authors. Individual papers will be allocated 20 minutes for presentation
plus 5 minutes for discussion.

First authors, presenters, and other attending participants must register for
the conference. Each participant may submit only one abstract as the first or
sole author, but can be a second, or subsequent, co-author of another paper or
papers.

The working languages of the conference will be English, Kazakh, and Russian.
Plenary talks will be held in English, but abstracts may be submitted in any
of the three working languages.

The conference fee will be approximately 100 USD for international
participants and 10,000 KZT for participants based in Central Asian countries
(to be confirmed). This fee will include admission to all sessions; tea and
coffee on both days; conference program; conference goods; and the certificate
of attendance.

Papers presented at the conference will be eligible for publication in the
journal Language, Culture, Environment (https://www.kimep.kz/lcej/).

submitted in .pdf, .doc, or .docx format to cale2020 at kimep.kz by 23:59 on
