Language, culture and interculturality: Global debates, local challenges

Universidad de los Andes, Bogotá, Colombia
22 - 26 November 2021
Keynote speakers:

Anne-Marie Truscott de Mejía, PhD, Universidad de los Andes, Colombia

Conference Theme

Reflecting on language, culture and interculturality: Global debates, local challenges

The events of the past two years have seen disruptions to the global flows of capital and labour, and an increase in digital communications globally. In a world where virtual encounters have displaced many (but by no means all) physical ones, we face ever greater challenges in facilitating social and cultural mobilities, while we continue to meet with inequalities, disempowerment, sustained conflict, political, medical and economic crises, and ecological threats. This conference invites us to revisit and critique our theoretical and practical assumptions about interculturality, language, education, and critical pedagogy. How do we as scholars and educators respond creatively and positively to global and local challenges in times of crisis?

We particularly invite speakers to draw on the long and rich tradition of intercultural communication, language teaching and critical pedagogy in the Global South to address topics in language, culture, and interculturality, reflecting critically on the impact on local and global pedagogies of scholars such as Augusto Boal, Paulo Freire, Henry Giroux and Boaventura de Sousa Santos. 

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following broad themes:

Decolonising intercultural pedagogies
  • Language, culture and the postcolonial inheritance
  • Researching multilingually
  • Indigenous minority languages and intercultural pedagogy
  • Language education and language policy in the Global South
  • Translanguaging and intercultural communication
  • Plurilingualism and the rise of Global English
Marginalised identities in intercultural theory and practice
  • Critical and feminist intercultural pedagogies
  • LGBTQ identities in the intercultural curriculum
  • Including the differently abled in intercultural education
Interculturality in the virtual world
  • Cyberspace, cyberculture and intercultural communication
  • Telecollaboration, intercultural competence and the language classroom
  • Social media and intercultural being
Revisiting culture and interculturality in education
  • Intercultural language teaching and learning: new orthodoxies?
  • Transnational intercultural language education policies
  • The role of the arts in intercultural education
Intercultural pedagogies in times of crisis
  • Intercultural mediation in situations of conflict
  • The translator and interpreter as intercultural mediator
  • Culture and language in diasporic situations
  • Intercultural education and activism in the context of migration
  • Culture shock in intercultural theory and practice

Submission for Abstracts

Abstracts should be 250-300 words maximum and must contain a title, the author’s or authors’ name(s), institutional affiliation(s), a brief biography (up to 50 words and for each author), and up to six references. Abstracts will be reviewed by a scientific committee.

The extended deadline for submission of abstracts is Monday 20th September 2021. You will receive notification of the outcome of the review process by 30th September, 2021. Please email your abstract to IALIC2021@uniandes.edu.co

Abstracts will be reviewed by the conference committee, and the authors of the selected abstracts will be invited to present their ideas in the online conference. Presenters will speak for 20 minutes, followed by 10 minutes of discussion with the online audience, for a total of 30 minutes.

The Universidad de los Andes is among the best universities in the world. According to QS World University Rankings, it is ranked 35 in the world for employer reputation. This metric evaluates employers’ opinions on the best university professionals

Universidad de los Andes was founded in 1948, and it was the first private university in Colombia that was independent from political or religious movements or parties. It was conceived as a study center, a research center, and a place where truth could be upheld. Ever since the university was founded, its activities have focused on excellence, and this is affirmed in the Comprehensive Development Plan (CDP).

It is currently the only private university in the country that has been awarded a ten-year institutional accreditation for quality by the National Ministry of Education through Resolution 582 of January 9th 2015.

Universidad de los Andes was ranked eighth by the QS University Rankings 2015/2016 in Latin America, and it occupied the 283rd spot globally. Moreover, the Faculty of Management has the prestigious “Triple Crown”, which consists of three accreditations (EQUIS, AMBA, and AACSB); this is only held by 1% of business schools around the world. Additionally, eight undergraduate programs in the Faculty of Engineering have the International ABET accreditation.
