XXI Forum for Linguistic Sharing

15th – 16th April 2027 | In person and online

Call for Papers Now Open!

The Young Researchers’ Group of the Linguistics Centre of NOVA University Lisbon (JICLUNL) invites the academic community to participate in the XXI Forum for Linguistic Sharing, which will take place on 15 and 16 April 2027, in a hybrid format, with both in-person and online participation.

The Forum provides a space for researchers to meet, share their work and discuss research in linguistics, fostering dialogue among early-career researchers, the exchange of ideas and engagement with diverse theoretical and methodological perspectives.

Are you conducting research in Linguistics? Submit your abstract and share your research with the scientific community!

In addition to oral presentations by Master’s and PhD students, we also welcome undergraduate students to participate through junior oral presentations — an opportunity to share their research projects and take their first steps in academic communication.

JICLUNL Awards

As in previous editions, the highest-rated presentation in each category will be recognised with the corresponding award:

  • JICLUNL Award – Best Presentation: €200
  • JICLUNL Award – Best Junior Presentation: €50

[The JICLUNL Awards Regulations are available on the JICLUNL website.]
