"The Linguistics of Hope: Language Research and Service”: A Workshop

Dr. Priscilla Tan-Cruz (Ateneo de Manila University) and Dr. Ersweetcel C. Servano (Notre Dame of Dadiangas University)

We will discuss the concepts of appliable linguistics (Halliday, 2006) and positive discourse analysis (PDA) (Martin, 2004) in order to examine ways to allow our linguistics work to help solve the problems that our communities face today.

Living-Language-Land: Listening to Nature in Languages Not Our Own

Philippa Bayley and Neville Gabie

One significant goal of the talk is to explore potential ways that Living-Language-Land could engage with the ethnolinguistic diversity of the Philippines.
