Our mission

Our mission is to bring together university researchers from the Montreal region who work on the acquisition of second and additional languages, in order to share and develop research ideas, facilitate research projects and collaborative networks and enable and to encourage links between second language research, pedagogy and policy.

The proposed format includes research meetings twice per quarter, three hours each time, at different universities in Montreal on a rotating basis.
