This is the first workshop of the AHRC-funded project ‘Transnationalizing Modern Languages: Mobility, Identity and Translation in Modern Italian Cultures’. The workshop invites both local and international policy-makers, practitioners and leading experts to discuss the activities that local communities, institutions and universities undertake to manage and understand contact zones.

The aim is to map issues that involve the management of cultural and linguistic interchange in relation to mobility. Implications of these initiatives for local, national and international policy, as well as the applications of research within Modern Languages, will also be addressed.

Attendance is free of charge but space is limited. To register for the event or for further information please contact Naomi Wells (Naomi.Wells@warwick.ac.uk) by Thursday 12 February 2015. Program
