The International Applied Linguistics Research Conferences aim to explore the intersection of research and practice in language learning and teaching. They are supported by the editorial board of the Australian Journal of Applied Linguistics (Castledown) in close collaboration with a local host.

We recommended subscribing to our newsletter to avoid missing out on updates about the conference.

The International Applied Linguistics Research Conferences aim to:

  • promote the study of language acquisition and teaching as a transdisciplinary endeavour and thereby contribute to the elaboration and dissemination of theory, research, and practice.
  • creating a worldwide community that explores the teaching, learning, and researching of languages.
  • inspire language education in diverse contexts.
  • build bridges between cultures.
  • support colleagues in challenging political contexts.

The conferences welcome contributions from interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary perspectives (pedagogy, linguistics, psychology, and technology) with a view to discussing as a community the multiplicity of challenges associated with the conference theme. This theme, chosen by the Programme Committee, is a topic that has relevance to all language teachers and researchers, allowing them to consider various aspects of their own contexts.
