The event intends to illustrate the linguistic diversity of West Africa, particularly Senegal. The two key concepts will be “Education in local languages” and “Language documentation”. The attention will be put onto sociolinguistics phenomena and processes, such as “standardization of local languages”, “access to education” and “bilingualism”. Nevertheless, the organization encourages speeches having a descriptive perspective, focusing onto different aspects of West-African languages.
