The International Conference on Language and Social Psychology (ICLASP) is a biannual conference of The International Association of Language and Social Psychology (IALSP). The 17th conference #ICLASP17 is hosted by the Department of English and Communication, The Hong Kong Polytechnic University, Hong Kong. It brings together scholars who engage in sociopsychological research and analysis concerning the role of language in society.

ICLASP17 will host a number of panels across diverse areas including, but not limited to, health, culture, and current political issues. Discipline diversity is the hallmark of ICLASP and includes anthropology, sociology, communication, applied linguistics as well as social psychology.

The conference will be online. It will be an interactive conference and everyone will engage with ICLASP17:2022.

The call for papers is open till 1 February 2022. Papers should be submitted by 1 February 2022 but no later than 15 February 2022. As this is an online conference, the scheduling of papers across timezones is complex and we need sufficient time to plan the programme. All proposals received by 1 February 2022 will be reviewed, and corresponding authors will be notified of the status of their submissions by 1 March 2022. Proposals submitted by 15 February 2022 will be reviewed and notification will be sent by 15 March 2022.
