The CALPIU network
Financed by a grant from the Data collection Danish Council for Independent Research, Humanities, the CALPIU research center took up its work on August 1, 2009. Since 2007, the Center has been prepared by a rather informal network of research projects, the CALPIU network.
The CALPIU network focuses on the function of language in social and cultural practice at the international university, especially the significance of language proficiency and language choice within a context marked by the development of power relations and hierarchies of influence, as well as the significance of these power relations and hierarchies of influence vis-à-vis the organisation, didactics, learning processes and academic content of educational programmes in the humanities and social and natural sciences.
The CALPIU network was initiated by a group of researchers within sociolinguistics, conversation analysis, and discourse and communication analysis at Roskilde University, Denmark. It now links 50 senior and junior researchers from 23 universities and research centres in Denmark, other Nordic countries (Finland, Norway and Sweden), and beyond (Australia, Japan, China, UK, Spain and Germany).
