Meeting Description:

CASLAR is a biennial conference with the goal to bring together scholars from
all over the world whose research focuses on the acquisition, development and
use of Chinese as a second language to survey available knowledge in the
field, exchange ideas and initiate research projects. The conference is a part
of the CASLAR movement that aims to transform a field from a primarily
experienced-and practice-based discipline into a discipline based on and
supported by research and theory. The first CASLAR conference was held at
Zhejiang University, Hangzhou, China in 2010. Since then, the CASLAR
conferences have been held at Taipei (2012), Parma (Italy,2014), Shanghai
(2016), Hongkong (2018), and Washington D.C. (2021).

Another means supporting the CASLAR movement is a new bilingual journal
Chinese as a Second Language Research《汉语作为第二语言研究》published by De Gruyter
Mouton, Berlin/New York. Copies of the journal will be available at the
conference. Website of the journal: http://www.degruyter.com/view/j/caslar
