Several institutions have convened with plans to collaborate for the GLOCAL, and have expressed concern that the GLOCAL should be kept locally, but networked with all other bodies in Linguistic Anthropology. However, the GLOCAL plans to work with several other Institutions globally, and is currently negotiating with those bodies.

The GLOCAL has no intention to do this, but to organize and develop the GLOCAL to support all Asia, and global, Linguistic Anthropologists, and organizations in Linguistic Anthropology. Our role as an annual conference is to solidify and advance efforts by the current prominent and indeed crucial organizations focusing on Linguistic Anthropology, and related fields.

The conference location will change every year, and will thus be hosted by a new Institution for each respective year.

The GLOCAL will publish strong work presented at the conferences, and is currently discussing with several key publications to affect this. Consequently, the GLOCAL aims to support and facilitate a rise in academic quality so to increasingly opportune academics and researchers to develop, and hence to become more competent to contribute their work to publications.

All queries can be directed to the Head of Communications.
