Dear Colleagues

We have waited four years for ICLASP17 and it is going to happen as planned in Hong Kong!!

We have decided that the conference will be online. This was a tough decision but we will ensure it will be an interactive conference and everyone will engage with ICLASP17:2022.

The conference will be held in Hong Kong between 22 to 25 June 2022. ICLASP17 will connect scholars who engage in sociopsychological research and analysis concerning the role of language in society. The conference will feature many of the distinguished, high profile keynote speakers who were invited to be part of the 2020 Conference.

Full details regarding the call for papers are now available and will extend until 1 February 2022. Authors will be notified of the status of their submissions by 1 March 2022.

Best
Bernadette Watson
Committee Chair, ICLASP17
