Meeting Description:

The 2023 SLE conference in Athens included an outreach session, in
which a number of conference participants reported on some national
and local initiatives aiming for dispersing linguistic knowledge more
widely among the general public (video recording available at the SLE
YouTube channel
https://www.youtube.com/@Societas_Linguistica_Europaea/playlists). As
a result, a number of future activities are being prepared, among
which a manifesto about Linguistics in Schools (see p. 8 in the SLE
Newsletter from October 2023: https://societaslinguistica.eu/wp-conten
t/uploads/2024/01/Newsletter_SLE_October_2023.pdf).
At SLE 2024 in Helsinki, a special session will be organized on
science communication research related to linguistics. The goal is to
present and discuss results from actual research that is relevant to
communicating linguistics. This may range from empirical research or
practical experience on factors determining the success (or lack
thereof) of a specific linguistics communication project, to
consequences or implications of general science communication research
for the specific field of linguistics.

Linguists and science communication researchers are hereby invited to
submit an abstract for a presentation in this special session.
Abstracts are not to be submitted through EasyChair, but should be
sent as an email-attachment (docx or pdf format) to Alexandru Nicolae
(alexandru.nicolae at unibuc.ro) and Arie Verhagen
(A.Verhagen at hum.leidenuniv.nl) simultaneously. Abstracts will be
reviewed by members of the SLE Executive Committee.
The deadline for abstracts for this special session is Monday, 26
February, 2024. Notification of acceptance/rejection will be given by
31 March 2024.
