Subject: Call for Bids for Hosting the 19th International Cognitive Linguistics Conference (ICLC19)


The International Cognitive Linguistics Conference (ICLC) is the
biennial confer-ence of the International Cognitive Linguistics
Association (ICLA). It brings together scholars who share a
cognitive-functional view of language, according to which language is
seen as an integral part of cognition. In recent years, Cognitive
Lin-guistics has become more and more interdisciplinary, combining
insights from ty-pology, psycholinguistics, neurolinguistics, language
history, and other fields.
ICLC has taken place in 13 countries across three continents (Europe,
Asia, Ameri-ca). Typically held in July or early August, it attracts
around 500 participants, with usually 4-8 plenary talks, theme
sessions, and a general session that takes place in parallel slots
(usually around a dozen parallel sessions). Previous iterations have
often included a PhD student event organized by local PhD candidates
and early-career researchers. The social programme typically includes
a conference dinner and post-conference excursions; local organizers
may also offer pre-conference workshops.
The ICLA Board welcomes submissions of bids to host ICLC19. Please
submit your bid to ICLA President Terry Janzen
<terry.janzen at umanitoba.ca> and ICLA Secretary Helen Zhao
<helen.zhao at unimelb.edu.au> by May 1, 2027. Proposals should include
information on the proposed host institution, venue, facilities,
ac-commodations (e.g., signed language interpreting provision), and
vision for host-ing the conference. Please include names and profiles
of the proposed core com-mittee, along with any information on
previous events hosted by committee mem-bers and/or the proposed
venue. Supporting information such as financial plan-ning, suitability
of host institution and host city, travel feasibility, and visual aids
will help improve the effectiveness of the bid.
Prospective bidders who have questions or would like further
information about hosting ICLC19 are welcome to contact ICLA President
Terry Janzen at terry.janzen at umanitoba.ca.
