The LMLEDC conference invites researchers, educators, and practitioners to submit papers that investigate the transformative shifts in language education within decolonial contexts and generate discourses on how these changes affect teaching and learning practices globally.
Notable keynote speakers will include Professor Suresh Canagarajah, Evan Pugh University Professor of Applied Linguistics, English, and Asian Studies at Pennsylvania State University, USA; Professor Stephen May, School of Māori and Indigenous Education, Faculty of Education and Social Work at the University of Auckland, New Zealand; and Professor Sender Dovchin, Senior Principal Research Fellow at Curtin University, Australia.
