Meeting Description: 

IGALA is the premiere international scholarly organisation for the study of
language as it relates to the construction and representation of gender and
sexuality. Since its founding in 1999, IGALA has been dedicated to supporting
and promoting research on language, gender and sexuality, and to communicating
to the wider world about relevant gender, sexuality and language issues.

Due to the ongoing pandemic, IGALA11 will take place entirely online. The
conference will feature both pre-recorded individual presentations (available
on-demand to registered participants 2 weeks before the conference dates) and
a series of live events from 222-24 June 2021. 

The theme of IGALA11 is Language and the Geopolitics of Gender. 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.

Program Information: 

IGALA11, hosted by Queen Mary University of London, will be taking online
place from 22-24 June 2021. 

The programme features 152 individual papers and 6 organised panels, with an
additional 35 individual contributions. All individual papers and panel papers
will be available as on-demand video content from 8 June 2021.

During the conference itself, we will be hosting 4 plenary talks - from
Michelle Lazar, Grace Diabah, Lal Zimman and Susan Ehrlich - as well as 16
live thematic discussion sessions, 2 training workshops and the IGALA General
Meeting.
