<p class="MsoNormal"> </p><p class="MsoNormal"><span><span>Workshop</span></span> description: </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify">The
purpose of the <span><span>workshop</span></span> is to provide a platform for fieldworkers to exchange
their experiences and reflections on the role <span><span>gender</span></span> plays in both their work
and personal life while in the field. <br></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><br></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify">A
lot has been said about the relationship between <span><span>gender</span></span> and fieldwork in
anthropology, but no such exchange has yet been initiated in documentary
linguistics. By means of this <span><span>workshop</span></span> we hope to start bridging that gap, and
hopefully make fieldworkers more aware of ways of conceptualising, and relating
to both their gendered experience, and <span><span>gender</span></span> dynamics in their host
communities.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><br></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify">This
event is an all-day <span><span>workshop</span></span>, with two keynote talks as well as
refereed presentations. </p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><br></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify">Keynote speakers:</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><br></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify">Natalia
