Our national conference is to be held in Adelaide on 7 and 8 September 2023. Its title ‘Dynamic Dialogues, Vibrant Literacies: Reflect, Connect, Grow.’, signals the opportunity to celebrate emergence from a time of turbulence and to regroup.
ACAL’s 2023 National Conference will address a broad scope of critically important themes, relating to adult literacy policy, practice, research, and theory. It will provide a variety of presentation types and offer delegates an opportunity to focus on their collective concerns related to adult literacy and numeracy in Australia, discuss key issues in the field, share their work and rebuild networks.
