Meeting Description:

The Graduate Student Network of the Language, Communication and Culture
signature research area at the University of Alberta in Edmonton, Canada, is
pleased to announce its first annual Graduate Students in Language,
Communication and Culture Conference.

Our goal is to bring together graduate students from different linguistic and
cultural backgrounds doing research with a focus on language, communication,
and culture, and to facilitate interdisciplinary exchange.

There is no cost to register or attend. 

In order to keep the conference accessible for graduate students, and to adapt
to current  pandemic practices, it will be hosted online via Zoom and
Gather.Town. 

Language Considerations:
As a Canadian university, we recognize that French and English are our
institutional languages, and the importance of Indigenous languages spoken
across Canada. Our international graduate student conference welcomes
contributions on all languages and/or cultures. The working language of our
conference and the language for all contributions is English. Yet, we strongly
encourage the participation of speakers of languages other than English.
Depending on the number and type of submissions we receive, we may offer the
opportunity to present in other languages.

L'Université de l’Alberta étant implantée au Canada, nous reconnaissons le
statut officiel du français et de l’anglais ainsi que l’importance de toutes
les langues autochtones parlées au Canada. Notre conférence internationale
d’étudiants en cycles supérieurs est ouverte à toutes présentations portant
sur des langues / cultures du monde entier. La langue de travail de la
conférence et celle des présentations est l’anglais. Cependant, il est entendu
que la participation de locuteurs non natifs de l’anglais est fortement
encouragée. En fonction du nombre et type de propositions que nous recevons,
nous pourrions organiser des sessions dans d’autres langues.
