The 68th annual conference of the Association of Hispanists of Great Britain and Ireland will comprise of 2 face-to-face days in Dublin (Monday 17th – Tuesday 18th April) and one day fully online (Friday 21st April). The conference will be hosted jointly by University College Dublin and Trinity College Dublin. The majority of events will take place at the UCD Student Centre, Belfield Campus.

The Association aims to promote scholarly research in Great Britain and Ireland into the study of the languages and cultures of the Hispanic and Lusophone world. We take an active part in continuing dialogue on these activities with the British and other Governments, and appropriate agencies such as HEFCE, and aim to promote the widest possible awareness of their cultural, educational and vocational importance. We co-operate with other organizations, such as the Spanish Embassy, the Instituto Cervantes, Canning House and the Asociación Internacional de Hispanistas, in the achievement of common objectives, and provide a forum for the discussion and elaboration of these aims by members. 

Keynote speakers:

Prof Omar García, Trinity College Dublin
