Universidad de los Andes

General Information
This symposium, in similar fashion to Bilinglatam I which took place in Buenos Aires, Argentina in 2004, aims at promoting an exchange of knowledge in the fields of research and teaching on bilingualism and bilingual education among those who work in majority and minority language contexts in Latin America.

The Organising Committee invites proposals for presentations on any aspect of bilingualism in a Latin American context, or in other educational or research contexts which have a direct relationship with Latin America.

The three central themes of the Second Symposium are:

• Models, programmes and pedagogical practices in bilingual education.
• Linguistic and educational policies for bilingual or multilingual education.
• Teacher education and professional development in bilingual contexts.

There will be three modalities of presentation:

• Key note sessions (with invited key note speakers)
• Oral papers (Maximum time, 30 minutes)
• Poster sessions
• Round tables with invited participants
