Dear members,

we are very happy to announce that the next conference of LANGSCAPE will be held between 12-14 October, 2017 in Ljouwert/Leeuwarden, the capital of bilingual Fryslân in The Netherlands! It will be hosted by Mercator, the European Research Center on Multilingualism and Language Learning, which is part of the Fryske Akademy.

Our conference will bring together scholars from different disciplines who explore issues of multilingualism from minority and majority perspectives using both quantitative and qualitative methods. Our keynote speakers will be: Jasone Cenoz and Durk Groter, both from the University of the Basque Country, and Piet Van Avermaet from the University Ghent.

The thematic focus will be on aspects such as identities, perceptions, attitudes, beliefs, values, motivations, norms, behaviour, language policies and so on. A selection of submissions will be chosen for presentation on topics including multilingual communication and miscommunication; language learning and teaching; bilingualism & multilingualism in endangered, regional and minority languages; multilingualism and discrimination; multilingualism and media (mass and social).
