Southern African Linguistics and Applied Linguistics Society (SALALS)
SALALS, launched in 2018 as a society for linguists, applied linguists and language practitioners, is broadly dedicated to promoting the disciplines of Linguistics, Applied Linguistics and Language Practice and to fostering research excellence in linguistics and language-related disciplines in the region and for all the languages of Southern Africa.
