About Linguapax: Linguapax Asia works in partnership with Linguapax
International, an NGO in Barcelona, Spain. Linguapax Asia carries out
the objectives of both Linguapax International and UNESCO's Linguapax
Project with a special focus on Asia and the Pacific Rim. For further
information visit our website at http://www.linguapax-asia.org.

The organizers: The event is organized jointly by Linguapax Asia,
Eikei University of Hiroshima, Hiroshima JALT Chapter and JALT’s
Global Issues SIG. Linguapax Asia 24 is held in the world’s first
nuclear bombed city. The symposium highlights the role of languages in
building peace, preventing war and promoting conflict resolution.

Linguapax Asia promotes linguistic tolerance and language diversity.
Multilingualism and plurilingualism enable engagement, foster public
enlightenment and promote inclusive societies. Language can also be an
agent of social division, discrimination and micro-nationalisms.
Possible themes include:
 ▪ language in nationalism, national and regional conflict
 ▪ language and well-being
 ▪ migration and language
 ▪ language as a means of conflict resolution
 ▪ the language and metaphors of war
 ▪ language in community integration
 ▪ the role of indigenous languages in peace and national development
 ▪ language learning as a means of peace education
