This is the homepage for the Forum on Englishes in Australia. The Forum provides a space to meet and discuss the use of Englishes (and English-based contact varieties) in Australia which is inclusive of all methodological and theoretical approaches.
We are allowing some extra time for you to get your abstracts in - don't miss out. Please now submit by the 23rd of September. We look forward to seeing all your ideas! Submit abstracts here.
Registration for the Forum on Englishes in Australia is now open. The event will be held at Monash City College Docklands on November 7, 2025, and you can choose to register in-person or online.
Please submit your 300 word abstracts on any aspect of English, from any methodological perspective, by September 18th.
We are back for 2025, now being hosted by Monash University at their Docklands campus (and online). See the call for papers flyer --->
Anonymous abstracts due in by the 19th of September and again we have our popular very short presentation and a standard format.
Save the date (and look out for emails if you are on our mailing list) - Friday 7th of November.
We welcome students, teachers, new researchers, established academics and anyone else who is interested in learning more about and discussing Englishes in Australia (from any perspective).
