AILA regional networks
AILA pursues a strategy of regionalization that aims at establishing closer international cooperation among applied linguists from more or less neighbouring countries who are affiliated to AILA by fostering joint events, projects and publications in the respective regions. At the same time, AILA looks forward to more collaboration across networks and regions. One such event that has just been held is:

The webinar was an inter-regional collaboration between ALAA (Australia) and MAAL (Malaysia) with AILA Europe (coordinator).

Research & Publications
AILA Europe has published a special issue of the European Journal of Applied Linguistics, Volume 10 Issue 2: Theme: New Generation of Applied Linguists in Europe Guest Editors: Aleksandra Gnach and Gregory Miras
|
The issue has three sections:
|
- Advancements in language teaching and learning
- Embracing social responsibility through research
- Understanding complex societal phenomena with linguistic methodology
Call for book proposals
The AILA Applied Linguistics Series (AALS) covers different topics in applied linguistics from a multidisciplinary approach and aims to include different theoretical and methodological perspectives. As an official AILA publication, the series includes contributors from different geographical and linguistic backgrounds. The volumes in the series should be of high quality, break new ground and stimulate further research in Applied Linguistics.
|
Call for proposals for special issues
AILA Review invites AILA members from all national affiliate organisations to submit proposals for future issues of AILA Review. AILA Review is the Scopus-indexed Journal that focuses on cutting-edge research by AILA research networks. It is published by John Benjamins, Amsterdam, and appears twice a year, once as a thematically oriented, guest-edited volume of 100-120 pages, and once as an open issue.
|
