Webinar: Linguistics in the Public Sphere: an Advocacy
The intersection between linguistics and public policy is manifold. There are at least three corners of the intersection: 1) government funding for linguistics research; 2) public policies that are informed (or should be) by the findings of linguistics research; 3) public policies that affect the context in which linguistics operates as a discipline. This webinar provides a basic overview of all three “corners” and also includes practical guidance on the most effective strategies for influencing public policy in today’s political environment.
This webinar will be of interest to linguistics scholars, students, and enthusiasts who may be looking to engage in advocacy for the first time or seasoned advocates interested in hearing about the latest strategies for effectively talking about research to policy makers.
