Centre for Multilingualism & Diversities Research
Южно-Африканская Республика
Добавлен 7 мар 2023
The central brief of the Centre for Multilingualism and Diversities Research (CMDR) is to embark on a project of intellectual reorientation, namely a significant rethinking of multilingualism and the development of a new discourse with which to approach interdisciplinary work in the humanities and the education sciences.
In this channel, we share videos of our annual seminar series that seeks to provide a platform for engagement as we invite local and international scholars and students to present their work to colleagues at The University of the Western Cape (UWC), with the aim to critically interrogate notions of multilingualism and linguistic diversity. We get in conversation with our guest scholars via our audio podcast series.
