5th International Conference<\/h6>\n

Foreign Languages and Tourism<\/h3>\n

12th-13th November, 2021 – Online Conference<\/h6>\n

.<\/span><\/h4>\n

Conferences jointly organized by the four universities biannually aim to bring together teachers and researchers of languages for tourism and tourism discourse, and open up space for dialogue with colleagues, exchange of research findings and teaching practices and discussions of the future of our discipline and its contribution to the world around us.<\/p>\n

Last year\u2019s conference, which was organized by the University of Applied Sciences Burgenland, Austria, was impossible to hold due to the COVID-19 pandemic, which has severely altered our professional and individual lives. In light of the ongoing uncertainties of these turbulent and challenging times and the likely travel difficulties they may cause, the representatives of the four universities have decided to organize their next conference fully online. We feel that running a virtual conference has many positive aspects to it: it is safe and more affordable, it is ecologically beneficial in terms of carbon footprints, innovative, and it will give us all some much-needed peace of mind looking ahead to autumn 2021. With our distinguished plenary speakers and with your active participation and contribution, we are confident that the Foreign Languages and Tourism 2021 online conference is going to be an interesting and stimulating experience.<\/p>\n
