CONFERENCE THEME

“To speak a language is to take on a world, a culture,” says Frantz Fanon. To undestand a culture fully, one must first be dedicated to learning its native language. Linguists well as our body of literature play a crucial role in unlocking the secrets behind the world’s multitude of languages, and helping people understand how the human mind works across time and space, from different eras and individual cultures.
