Am Institut für Romanische Sprachen/Department für Wirtschaftskommunikation der WU Wien organisieren wir im kommenden Frühjahr eine Tagung unter dem Titel "Linguistic Diversity in Professional Settings: Needs, Policies and Practices", sie findet 2.-3. Mai 2024 statt.
Im Anhang finden Sie den ausführlichen Call for Papers, nähere Informationen zudem auf der Konferenzwebsite: https://www.wu.ac.at/linguisticdiversity/. Hier ein paar Stichwörter aus dem Call:


Our conference aims to gain insights into the needs, policies and practices when dealing with linguistic diversity in professional settings. It will bring together researchers and practitioners to discuss:

  *   how different organizations deal with linguistic diversity

  *   which problems and challenges arise related to linguistic diversity in professional settings
  *   how linguistic diversity can enrich professional settings
  *   which practices respond particularly well to linguistic diversity in professional settings
  *   how teaching languages for professional purposes can address communication within linguistic diversity



In line with this focus, we welcome contributions on a wide variety of professional contexts and languages. Specifically, abstracts are invited for a 20-minute presentation on any of the following topics:

  *   Linguistic diversity in multilingual and international organizational environments
  *   Conversation/multimodal/discourse analysis of multilingual professional settings
  *   Linguistic landscaping in professional contexts (hospitals, public institutions, etc.)
  *   Linguistic diversity within diversity management
  *   Language policies and policymakers in professional settings
  *   Teaching foreign languages for professional purposes within linguistic diversity


Wir freuen uns über Ihre Beiträge, die Sie bis 30. November 2023 einreichen können. Bitte senden Sie Ihr Abstract an linguistic_div at wu.ac.at<mailto:linguistic_div at wu.ac.at>.

Herzliche Grüße
Das Tagungsteam
