Meeting Description:

International Conference “Attitudes towards gender-inclusive language. A
multinational perspective”(Friday 9th September 2022 online)

Gender-neutral and gender-inclusive language is currently being discussed in
the public sphere, and views on the subject have increasingly been voiced by
individuals as well as organisations. These include state institutions,
private associations, subject specialists such as linguists, and private
individuals / laypeople. Views of and attitudes towards gender-neutral
language cover a abroad spectrum between extreme ends, and even subject
specialists hold conflicting views.

Some academic research on attitudes towards gender-neutral language has been
conducted and published. However, a multinational/multilingual, comparative
perspective is still missing. To address this shortcoming, this international
conference will bring together researchers studying attitudes towards
gender-neutral language in different languages and countries.

Some examples of questions to be addressed and discussed are: How are
attitudes towards gender-neutral language voiced in different countries and
languages? What groups or individuals engage in the debate, and what are their
views and attitudes? What are the prevailing discourses? Are there clashes
between proponents of different varieties of gender-fair language?

The international conference “Attitudes towards gender-inclusive language. A
multinational perspective” will be held online on Friday, 9 September 2022.
