IGALA 3 program on-line

[Tanya Matthews]

The program for IGALA3, the third biennial conference of the
International Gender and Language Association being held at Cornell
University 5-7 June, has just been posted at
http:/ling.cornell.edu/igala3.  In addition to plenary addresses from
Deborah Cameron, Norma Mendoza-Denton, and Niko Besnier, there is a
plenary panel, "Studying Language and Gender: International
Perspectives," that is moderated by Keith Walters (US) and includes
talks from Ana María Martirena (Argentina), Momoko Nakamura (Japan),
Binh Nguyen (Vietnam), and Fatima Sadiqi (Morocco).  And there are 40
oral presentations (presented in two parallel sessions) and 50
poster-based presentations that were accepted on the basis of
refereed abstracts.   Topics cover a wide range of issues in the
general area of language, gender, and sexuality studies, and
presenters come not only from the US and Canada and other
English-speaking countries (the UK, Australia, New Zealand) but also
from many other places (the list includes at least France, The
Netherlands, Belgium, Estonia, Russia, Cameroon, Lebanon, South
Africa, Brazil, Malaysia). Presentations begin at 9:30 on Saturday, 5
June, and conclude at 12:55  on Monday, 7 June.  Post-conference
workshops will be held 7 June, 2:15-5:15 pm.  The workshop on
teaching language and gender is facilitated by Janet Holmes and
Marisol del Teso Craviotto, that on research ethics is facilitated by
Penelope Eckert and Tanya Matthews, and that on phonetic research is
facilitated by Lisa Lavoie and Rob Podesva.  Full descriptions of the
workshops will be posted online very soon, and we have already begun
registering people who have expressed interest in them.
