@LinguisticsSOAS @GJosephRoche Really looking forward to this. Is there a link to sign up for info fir future events? I can't see anything on the SOAS website.

(3/3) We will also launch the recently published Handbook of Linguistic Human Rights, a landmark publication exploring the intersection of human rights and languages. The two editors of this book will join us, along with two contributors to the volume.

(2/3) In this panel discussion, four experts will discuss how language rights save lives, as part of a broader, worldwide discussion of this issue on Global Language Advocacy 2023.
