The Austronesian and Papuan Languages and Linguistics Research Group is pleased
to announce that its eleventh international conference – APLL11 – will be held
at Leiden University on 13-15 June 2019. The purpose of the APLL conferences is
to provide a venue for presentation of the best current research on
Austronesian and Papuan languages and linguistics and to promote collaboration

held in Surrey, previous APLL conferences held in Paris and London, and the
Austronesian Languages and Linguistics (ALL) conferences held at SOAS and St
