Meeting Description:

The Working Group for Non-Dominant Varieties (WGNDV) has thus far
successfully held ten international conferences since its inception in
2010. After Graz (AUT, 2011), Salamanca (ESP, 2012), Guilford (ENG,
2014), Graz (AUT, 2015), Mainz (GER, 2017), Nitra (SVK, 2018), Graz
(AUT, 2019), Stockholm (SWE, 2019), Graz (AUT, 2021) and Leipzig (GER,
2023), WGNDV-11 is coming to Lisbon (POR) in 2025.

Since Graz 2021, we organize our conferences in mixed mode to reduce
our ecological footprint and to keep our conference fees as low as
possible. It also allows researchers from all over the world to
participate, with a special invitation extended to scholars from less
privileged socioeconomic backgrounds, less commonly studied and/or
less widely used languages.

WGNDV-11 welcomes you to Lisbon, Portugal, 22-24 May 2025. The
conference will be on site, with an hybrid option for those unable or
ecologically unwilling to travel to Portugal next spring. We welcome
presentations in either (any variety of) English or Portuguese, though
we request that all written material (slides, handouts) to be
delivered in English to allow for maximum synergies in the highly
multilingual setting of WGNDV.
