The LanDpost, "Languaging and Diversity in the age of post-colonial Glocal-medialization" international conference aims to address issues of how identification processes impinge upon and shape, both historically and in present times, understandings of
(i) human communication and sociolinguistic issues,

(ii) personhood and identity, and

(iii) intellectual, symbolic and material tools.

The digital and medial lives of children, young people and adults in different geopolitical spaces and the disparity of experiences within these spaces and their communities calls for systematically revisiting some central areas in the human and natural sciences generally, and the language and cultural sciences more specifically. The recent popular and academic interest in these digital and medial shifts (in Europe particularly) suggest a marginalization vis-à-vis the diversity and plurality of the Global South. This international conference aims to address such issues by eliciting participation and bringing together empirically framed analysis from sociolinguistic, discourse analytical, sociocultural theoretical perspectives on the one hand, and post-colonial framings on the other.
