BAAL 2022
Theme: Innovation and Social Justice in Applied Linguistics
1-3 September 2022, Queen’s University Belfast, Northern Ireland (UK)
 
BAAL 2022 will be hosted by Queen’s University in Belfast, Northern Ireland.
The conference’s theme Innovation and Social Justice in Applied Linguistics
reflects an increasing interest in research that responds to real-world
concerns within and beyond the field. In the face of a global health crisis
and rising socio-racial awareness, our theme invites discussions around
innovative and socially just practices in a field that is experiencing the
multilingual, spatial, and social justice turn all at once. The current times
are transformative and we hope that the conference theme will enable proposals
from across disciplines and sub-disciplines of applied linguistics to
stimulate conversations about the field’s responses to global turbulence and
shifts. We also invite proposals to generate meaningful dialogue around
current issues in language research. 
We plan to hold the conference in-person with limited virtual options for
participation.  We will monitor the situation closely and reassess the
situation in March 2022 and make a final decision as to whether the conference
will be held in person or if we will have to move to an online format. Rest
assured that all members will be updated as soon as any major decisions are
made. 
 
The BAAL 2022 Conference is brought to you by a team of applied linguists at
School of Social Science, Education, and Social Work and School of Arts,
English, and Languages at Queen’s University Belfast. Framed by mountains and
sea, Belfast is the largest city in Northern Ireland and is a thriving hub for
culture, technology, and the arts. It is home to a maintained Irish language
and Ulster Scots presence alongside many varieties of English and the
languages of newly arrived communities – a testament to its history as a site
of language contact for centuries. Belfast can easily be reached by ferry
(directferries.co.uk) or air, and George Best City Airport is just 10 minutes
from the city centre and 15 minutes from Queen’s. Travel by ferry starts and
ends at the city centre bus station.  
 
Plenary Speakers
- Li Wei, University College London

Call for Papers
We welcome abstracts for conceptual and empirical papers in any area of
Applied Linguistics, broadly defined. Papers should offer something new and of
interest to a BAAL audience. Abstracts for papers reporting on research should
clearly outline aims, methods(s), and results. Conceptual papers should offer
clear expositions of how the paper contributes to the field. Abstracts that
specifically address the conference theme will be particularly welcome.
