GLECC 2025 – International Conference on Globalisation in Languages, Education, Culture, and Communication (Final CfP)

Date: 30-31 July, 2025
Location: Manchester, UK

The past two decades have witnessed remarkable advancements in the studies of Education, Second and Foreign Languages, Translation and Interpreting, Cultural Studies, and Communication. This growth, evident in both the number of active researchers and the volume of scholarly output, can be largely attributed to the forces of globalisation. Consequently, adopting the globalisation perspective is timely and provides a natural framework for connecting these diverse yet interlinked disciplines.

Conference Objectives

The conference aims to:

• Bring together researchers, educators, practitioners, and policymakers from the realms of education, foreign and second languages, cultural studies, translation, interpreting, and communication.
• Disseminate research outcomes, share insights, discuss findings, exchange visions, and identify challenges and trends.
• Provide an interactive and immersive multidisciplinary environment.
• Break the subject silos by welcoming papers and contributions that cross the borders of traditional disciplines or emerge from frontier research.
