Meeting Description:

The Nilo-Saharan Linguistics Colloquium is an international forum established
by leading academics in the field of Nilo-Saharan studies, which covers a
large geographical area – from Ethiopia, Kenya and Tanzania in the east to
Mali, Niger and Nigeria in the west. The forum was established some three
decades ago in order to discuss, debate and disseminate developments in the
field on a regular basis. Since its inceptions in the 1986 the gathering had
conducted 12 colloquia in the various parts of the world and the last one (the
12th Nilo-Saharan Colloquium) was hosted by the Department of Linguistics and
Languages of the University of Nairobi, Kenya, in September 2015. Over the
years, Nilo-Saharan studies has become one of the most vibrant and innovative
fields in African linguistics. It is the close collaboration of linguists of
the various universities in Africa, North America, Europe and Asia that made
it an exciting, diversified and highly productive field of study. At the end
of the 12th Nilo-Saharan Linguistics Colloquium, the Department of Linguistics
of Addis Ababa University, Ethiopia, for the first time, has been given the
mandate to host the 13th Nilo-Saharan Linguistics Colloquium in May 2017.
