Association Néerlandaise de Linguistique Appliquée (ANéLA)
AILA is the acronym for Association Internationale de Linguistique Appliquée or International Association of Applied Linguistics.
AILA is the international federation of national or regional associations of Applied Linguistics. Through its member associations, AILA currently has a membership of more than 8.000 individuals worldwide who as researchers, policy makers or practitioners are active in the field of Applied Linguistics.
Applied Linguistics is an interdisciplinary field of research and practice dealing with practical problems of language and communication that can be identified, analysed or solved by applying available theories, methods and results of Linguistics or by developing new theoretical and methodological frameworks in Linguistics to work on these problems. Applied Linguistics differs from Linguistics in general mainly with respect to its explicit orientation towards practical, everyday problems related to language and communication.
The problems Applied Linguistics deals with range from aspects of the linguistic and communicative competence of the individual such as first or second language acquisition, literacy, language disorders, etc. to language and communication related problems in and between societies such as e.g. language variation and linguistic discrimination, multilingualism, language conflict, language policy and language planning.
AILA is a Non-Governmental Organization (NGO) enjoying Status B (mutual information and consultation) with UNESCO.

In applying for a Solidarity Award, individuals or affiliates applying on behalf of an individual must send all the following documents:
A one-page letter of application giving the motivation of the applicant to participate, the reasons why participation without the award might be impossible, and how the applicant intends to make use of the congress participation afterwards;
A proposed budget for the expenses;
A CV from the applicant, showing evidence of academic excellence and/or promise;
A letter of support from an AILA affiliate association, a Scientific Commission or a senior academic who is acquainted with the candidate's work;
A copy of the abstract accepted to the upcoming AILA World Congress or evidence of a firm invitation to take part in a symposium or Scientific Commission session.
Successful applicants must provide the AILA Executive Board with a one-page report within a month of the congress; the reports will be published in AILA News.
Applications should be sent to the chair of the Solidarity Committee of the AILA Executive Board:
AILA aims to extend participation in Applied Linguistics across geographical areas not currently well represented in our association by offering a limited number of Solidarity Awards to scholars in Applied Linguistics who might be unable to participate in the World Congress without financial support. This is made possible by the generous donation of individuals, businesses, and organizations to the Solidarity Fund.
The selection criteria for Solidarity Awards are academic merit or promise, together with a financially disadvantaged situation, and acceptance of an abstract for presentation by the Congress organisers.
There are both 'full' awards, covering reasonable travel costs, accommodation and congress fees, and 'travel' awards, covering reasonable travel costs and congress fees.
For application procedure details, see Application for Grants.
