WHY JOIN
We believe that ERL Association can make a difference – both in our understanding of how language determines education and in educational systems throughout the world. The Association is the global platform for interdisciplinary projects cutting across language and education.
See the range of scientific, financial, practical and strategic ERLA membership BENEFITS.
WHO HAS ALREADY JOINED (and where from)
ERLA has been joined by people representing different disciplines but sharing the view on the special position of language in education. It is due to this common denominator that we have aspired to become a worldwide association with members (from the world of academia and from outside it) contributing with their own national perspectives.
See our members presented graphically or a list.
HOW TO JOIN
We do encourage you to join ERL Association if your work relates to both language and education. As we favour clarity and shun complexity, the procedure is very simple: you email us at educationalroleoflanguage@gmail.com and present yourself, after which we peruse your application and approve you as a member if we find your participation mutually beneficial.
See ERLA regulations (get the password by email) and membership fee payment data.
WHAT YOU CAN DO AS A MEMBER
The exact form of participation is largely up to you as there are many different ways (and levels) of being involved in ERLA. For example, you can assist us in publishing ERL Journal, in organising and conducting ERL Conferences (officially run by ERL Network), expanding ERL Group, taking part in any of our ERL Projects, etc. More generally, as a member you are welcome to contribute – any form you wish – to ERLA’s mission of boosting the position of language in education and bringing educational and lingusitic studies closer together.
