The theme for the conference - Language, Culture and Identity in Applied
Linguistics - reflects different aspects of knowledge-building across the
field. The notion of language and culture represents the communities and
institutions which house and frame both language learning and language use.
The notion of language and identity focuses on the relationships each
individual has with communities and institutions, and which are evidenced in
interactions in work, social and learning contexts. The theme of the
meeting, then, provides opportunities for engagement with issues of language
use, language form, language learning, language pedagogy and language
assessment which inform on the construction of identity and on the social
and cultural contexts where identity is profiled.
