Following the success of the 2021 workshop series, Emerging Topics in Typology (ETT) returns for a second edition. ETT 2024 will be a 3-day conference from June 10th to 12th, 2024, organized by and for PhD students in diversity linguistics. The conference will be hosted at Stockholm University in a full hybrid mode – both presenters and non-presenting participants are welcome to attend all conference sessions either on-site in Stockholm or online through Zoom.
The 3-day conference will consist of:
- keynotes by invited speakers
- Hedvig Skirgård (Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology)
- Laura Becker (Universität Freiburg)
- presentation sessions by PhD students (selected by peer review of submitted abstracts)
- masterclasses on typological research methodology by senior researchers
- a short excursion
- a conference dinner
27 abstracts on a range of topics in diversity linguistics (quantitative and qualitative typology, language documentation and description) have been selected for presentation at ETT 2024.
Conference registration is free for both online and on-site participants, and is open to anyone with an interest in the conference topics (including non-PhD students).
ETT 2024 is organized in collaboration with the Department of Linguistics at Stockholm University, with funding provided by Stockholm University’s Doctoral School in the Humanities.
