The second International Conference on
Globalisation/Deglobalisation in Languages, Education,
Culture and Communication (GLECC2026) is going to be
held 28-30 July 2026, Manchester, UK.
The past two decades have witnessed remarkable advancements
in the studies into Education, Second and Foreign Languages,
Translation and Interpreting, Cultural Studies, and
Communication. This growth, evident in both the number of
active researchers and the volume of scholarly throughput and
outcomes, can be largely attributed to the forces of
globalisation. Consequently, adopting the globalisation
perspective is timely and provides a natural framework for
connecting these diverse yet interlinked disciplines.
This conference aims to bring together researchers,
educators, practitioners, and policymakers from the realms of
education, foreign and second languages, cultural studies,
translation, interpreting, and communication to disseminate
research outcomes, share insights, discuss findings, exchange
visions, and identify challenges and trends in an interactive
and immersive multidisciplinary environment.
Keynote speech: “Translation, Chinese Texts, and World
Literature” by Professor Yifeng Sun, University of Macau,
China.
Conference proceedings will be published open access with
an ISBN.
Submission deadline: 30 April 2026
