🌟Take part in our survey on language barriers at academic conferences! 🌟

At ISSABC, the International Student Symposium on Animal Behaviour and Cognition, we continue working to make scientific events more inclusive, engaging, and accessible for the global community of students in animal behaviour.

After hosting a multilingual conference in 2023 (with talks in both Spanish and English!), we are now diving deeper into a key question:

➡️ How do language barriers affect participation and opportunities for researchers and students?

We want to hear from everyone:

• If you’ve faced language barriers yourself
• If you’ve observed them affecting others
• Or even if language has never been an issue for you

Your insights will help us promote greater linguistic equity at international conferences.

🌟 Participa en nuestra encuesta sobre barreras de idioma en conferencias académicas 🌟

Desde ISSABC, el International Student Symposium on Animal Behaviour and Cognition, seguimos trabajando para que los eventos científicos sean más inclusivos, participativos y accesibles para toda la comunidad estudiantil de conducta animal y otros campos.

Tras organizar una conferencia multilingüe en 2023 (¡con presentaciones tanto en español como en inglés!), ahora queremos profundizar en un tema clave:

➡️ ¿Cómo afectan las barreras lingüísticas la participación de investigadores y estudiantes?

Queremos escuchar a todas y todos:
• Si has tenido dificultades por el idioma
• Si has visto cómo afecta a otras personas
• O incluso si nunca has tenido problemas

Tu experiencia nos ayudará a mejorar la equidad lingüística en conferencias internacionales.
