10th International Language and Development Conference, Cape Town, South Africa, 15-17 October 2013
This conference will be only the second to be convened in Sub-Saharan Africa and will coincide with reviews of progress toward the eight UN Millennium Development Goals by development professionals and policymakers worldwide as the 2015 MDG deadline approaches. The conference will provide an opportunity to explore the role of language in contributing to the achievement of the MDGs. It will also be a change to offer a language perspective in helping shape a strategy to deliver a revised set of development goals after 2015.
