We invite early career researchers to present their current research plan/results in individual slots to approach multilingualism from different viewpoints. This is a great chance for you to present your research, have discussions with students researching a similar topic, get feedback and questions and network. The presentation length will be 15/20 minutes. After each individual presentation, there will be some dedicated time to openly discuss and give ideas and comments on participants’ research. You can present either in person in Jyväskylä or online via Zoom. The organizers cannot reimburse participants’ travel costs but provide invitation letters or other supporting documents for travel grant applications on demand.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div style="margin: 0cm; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; background: white;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: rgb(33, 37, 41);"><o:p> </o:p></span></div><div style="margin: 0cm; font-size: 1.1rem; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; background: white; box-sizing: border-box; word-break: break-word;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: rgb(33, 37, 41);">If you would like to present in this mini conference, please send your abstract to </span><span style="color: rgb(33, 37, 41);"><a href="mailto:lcastane@student.jyu.fi" style="color: rgb(5, 99, 193); text-decoration: underline;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: rgb(0, 41, 87);">lcastane@student.jyu.fi</span></a></span><span lang="EN-US" style="color: rgb(33, 37, 41);"> by September 15th (Friday), 2023 at 23:59 EET.
