The University of British Columbia is pleased to host a joint conference bringing together SULA (Semantics of Under-represented Languages in the Americas) and TripleA (Semantics of Languages of Africa, Asia, Australia and Oceania). Here is the program. This will be the first time that these conferences will be combined into one joint event. The conference also marks the 25th Anniversary of SULA, which took place for the first time in 2001. The goal of the conference is to bring together researchers working on languages or dialects which are under-represented in the literature on formal semantics. There will be a speaker panel on Indigenous perspectives on linguistics research and language revitalization.
The invited speakers are:
- Ana Laura Arrieta Zamudio (University of British Columbia)
