BAAL is pleased to announce a change to our membership structure that we are piloting this year. This is in response to feedback on the relatively high cost of joining BAAL for some colleagues, and in support of the following current key priorities for BAAL:
- Equality, Diversity and Inclusion
- Recovery from the pandemic
- Developing our international outlook
- Multilingual representation
Our pilot scheme will offer up to 10 fee-free annual ‘solidarity’ memberships to applicants who meet one, or more, of the following criteria:
- Residency in a low- or lower-middle income country, as defined by the World Bank
- Refugee or Asylum Seeker status, anywhere in the world
- Currently without an institutional affiliation
- Currently registered as a postgraduate student on a full-time applied linguistics programme, anywhere in the world
- Currently employed on a fixed-term contract of 12 months or less, anywhere in the world
If you would like to apply for one of the 10 solidarity memberships, please send an email to the BAAL Membership Secretary, Rachel Wicaksono r.wicaksono@yorksj.ac.uk, with the following information:
- Your name
- Which of the criteria above you meet
- Up to 250 words about your reasons for joining and your potential contribution to BAAL, related to the key priorities listed
Please send your email by Monday 6th March (midnight UK time).
