Call for Papers: ICAAL 13

13th International Conference on Austroasiatic Linguistics (ICAAL 13)
Udon Thani Rajabhat University, Udon Thani, Thailand
29-31 October 2025

After the success of ICAAL 12, which featured a hybrid format combining in-person and online participation, the ICAAL 12 business meeting concluded that ICAAL 13 should follow a similar format.

We are pleased to announce that the next ICAAL will take place from 29-31 October 2025 and will be hosted by Udon Thani Rajabhat University in Udon Thani, Thailand.


Call for Papers: Austroasiatic Linguistics in honour of Michel Ferlus (1935-2024) (edited volume)

At ICAAL 12 in October 2024, it was decided to produce an edited volume in memory of Michel Ferlus (1935–2024), tentatively titled Austroasiatic Linguistics: In Honour of Michel Ferlus.

This volume will be printed in limited quantities, with hard copies provided to contributing authors and ICAAL 13 attendees. A PDF version will also be freely available on icaal.net. The editors of this volume are Paul Sidwell and Mathias Jenny.

We welcome contributions in the form of:

  • Papers from ICAAL 12
  • Personal tributes to Michel Ferlus
  • Papers engaging with research topics Michel Ferlus explored (interpreted broadly)
