Colliding forces and discourses: Language(s), politics and multilingual communities
We seek to normalise, support and promote equitable, diverse and inclusive bi- and multilingual ecologies and ideologies across all societal levels, from the local to the global, by conducting empirical research which integrates existing and develops new theoretical propositions to advance the current state of knowledge, stimulate further debate and offer solutions to language challenges in multilingual societies. By bringing together our specialisms in Cross-Linguistic Influence, Language Policy and Planning and Second Language Acquisition with a dual teaching and learning focus, our research engages with the critical issues of access, diversity and identity in multilingual contexts.
