Dear colleagues,

With apologies for cross-posting.

We are very pleased to announce Vocab@Hiroshima 2027, an international conference on vocabulary research, to be held in Hiroshima, Japan.

Summer School: 13 to 14 September 2027 Main conference: 15 to 17 September 2027

The conference brings together researchers, teachers, and postgraduate students with an interest in vocabulary, from acquisition and assessment through to teaching and use. Given the strong overlap between vocabulary and language testing, we hope it will be of real interest to colleagues on this list, and we would love for you to join us.

Key dates: 30 November 2026: call for papers posted and submission portal opens 15 February 2027: abstract submission deadline

We would be grateful if you could pass this on to colleagues and students who might be interested. Please do save the date, and we very much hope to see you in Hiroshima.

You can follow our updates here: Website: vocab-at-hiroshima.org

Full registration and travel details will follow in due course.

With warm wishes, The Vocab@Hiroshima 2027 organising committee info@vocab-at-hiroshima.org
