Workshops and symposia
We encourage the organization of workshops and
symposia that explore analysis, data description
or methodology; a particular theme; use of
systemic functional linguistics in applied
settings; or common interests among researchers.
Workshops and symposia time slots are 1hr and 15
mins (= 2 papers) and 1hr and 55 mins (= 3
papers).
Abstracts of workshops should be around 400
words; abstracts of symposia should include a
general abstract of around 400 words from the
symposium convenor(s) plus specific abstracts by
the individual presenters of around 200 words
each.
A review of the proposals will be conducted by
members of the organising committee, supported by
a panel of experts in systemic functional
linguistics. Decisions on acceptances will be
made by email (and by mail where required) as
soon as possible after submission.
