24th Conference on Foreign Language Research, in Hamburg (Germany)

The conference aims to bring together research activities with an explicit focus on learning and teaching languages in the context of globalization and migration, with all the challenges and consequences involved and from a variety of perspectives: language acquisition theory, language policy and history, teaching methodology and curricula.
It is hoped that the Conference will highlight recent developments from both a theoretical and an empirical angle, deliver many suggestions for future language learning and teaching, and create further innovative research questions.
