Call for Abstract: No Language, No Alliance – European University Alliances in Dialogue on Language

NEW DATE! Across the 65 European university alliances, multilingualism is part of everyday life: students, faculty, researchers, and administrative staff from 35 countries collaborate across linguistic and geographic boundaries to help shape Europe’s future – often using English as a common working language, yet bringing diverse communication styles and cultural perspectives to the table.

The conference brings together a broad range of viewpoints on multilingualism. Best practices, shared experiences, and projects will be presented by representatives from alliances, academia, and funding bodies, while early-career and established researchers showcase current research on multilingualism. Particular emphasis is placed on exchange and networking.

What to expect

  • Networking and exchange with other alliances and researchers
  • Presentations of best practices and ongoing projects
  • Panel discussion: “We end up speaking English anyway” – Navigating Communication in Multilingual Alliances on the role of English as a lingua franca in international higher-education communication
  • Accompanying workshops
  • Publication of selected contributions after the conference

Are you interested in presenting your research, projects, or your university alliance?

The Call for Abstracts is open until 31 January 2026 – you can find more information here.
