LESLLA's 20th Anniversary: Celebrating, Looking into the Future

LESLLA's 20th ANNIVERSARY

“Celebrating, Looking into the Future”

October 19, 2024 on Zoom

LESLLA's 20th Anniversary online event brings together scholars, educators and practitioners from different parts of the world to discuss some of the key themes that have emerged from our symposia.

To give all (future) LESLLA members the opportunity to participate, the event will be three sessions spread across three different times:

1. Session A: UTC 7:00 AM - 9:30 AM (find your local time here)
2. Session B: UTC 4:00 PM - 7:30 PM (find your local time here)
3. Session C: UTC 9:00 PM - 11:30 PM (find your local time here)

Each session is structured as follows:

• A discussion with one of LESLLA's founders around a pre-recorded keynote.
• A discussion with LESLLA experts in parallel breakout sessions on one of the key themes, as presented at one of the LESLLA symposia of the last five years. One or two presenters will introduce the topic on a video recording. Participants are asked to view this recording by October 19. In the break-out sessions, participants can further exchange their views on the topic. The presenters will also be available to answer questions  and provide further explanation.
• An open discussion. An exchange on how LESLLA can continue its commitment to research, practice and policy and how to further increase the impact of LESLLA. The discussion will be led by a moderator.

The results of the discussions and exchange will lead to a manifesto in which we identify future priorities for LESLLA's mission in research, practice and policy. This manifesto will be presented at the LESLLA symposium in Québec City in 2025.

Between the three time zone sessions, there are differences in the content of the program. The content is listed in the Zoom registration link and on the conference website.

Session B also includes time for the annual General Assembly to which all LESLLA members are invited. The General Assembly will take place at 4:00 PM, before the program for the 20th Anniversary.
