Conference Proceedings

Message from the SSILA President - 2021 SSILA Annual Meeting

We hope this email finds you well given the circumstances. We are writing to let you know of our plans for the 2021 conference. SSILA Board members have been in constant communication as events unfold all over the world. After careful consideration we have decided to move our annual conference to a virtual format for this meeting. We are all very concerned about the effects this pandemic has on the populations we are very closely in relationships with, particularly elder Indigenous language speakers. Furthermore, the uncertain and unpredictable circumstances related to travelling, social gatherings and academic (and personal) budgets has led us to believe this is in the best interest of everyone in our society.
