ABOUT

In 1999, UNESCO declared 21 February as International Mother Language Day (IMLD). IMLD was established to help preserve local languages from the possibility of extinction or marginalisation, but also to promote global awareness of linguistic and cultural diversity.

Since then, a lot of research has focused on the existence and linguistic uniqueness of local languages. Despite this, more effort and research is needed that not only focuses on UNESCO’s mission, but ensures the sustainability and life of local languages.

International Conference on Local Languages (ICLL) is a scientific forum dedicated to empowering and preserving local languages. The aim of the conference is to provide an opportunity for academics, researchers and students from various disciplines to share their expertise, concerns, and research results in preserving and promoting local languages.

The conference is purposely organised in February 2018 in order to bring UNESCO’s mission of respecting local languages into a productive scientific exchange.

TOPICS
