The Impact of Global English on Higher Education and Beyond
Monday, February 26, 2024
8:30 am – 10:00 am EST/GMT-5 Online Event
8:30 AM New York l 2:30 PM Vienna
The Language, Culture, and Justice Hub is an online platform that seeks to promote inquiry and share knowledge about the full complexity of justice and its processes by acting as a clearinghouse for scholarship and practitioner-based commentary about how language and culture impact justice, broadly defined.
The Hub is affiliated with the Experimental Humanities Collaborative Network, and the Center for Human Rights and the Arts, both supported by OSUN.
This webinar is the Hub’s first program of 2024, exploring the experiences of scholars associated with several OSUN institutions, including Ahmed Ayaad (Al Quds University), Aizhana Dzhumalieva (AUCA), Joseph Farquharson (University of the West Indies), and Joseph Oduro-Frimpong (Ashesi University). It will be moderated by the coordinator of the Hub and CHRA/EHCN Fellow of Research and Practice, Leigh Swigart.
This webinar is open to all OSUN students and will explore the English-language experiences of academics from diverse regions of the world, all of whom work in institutions that are part of OSUN. Through a facilitated conversation, these scholars will address questions such as the following: What challenges and opportunities does the increasing pressure to publish academic work in English create for these scholars, and what impact does it have on their fields of study?
