- **Event Description**: Accented Writing is an interdisciplinary workshop exploring multilingualism as lived experience, academic research and creative practice.About this EventAccented Writing is an interdisciplinary workshop exploring multilingualism as lived experience, academic research and creative practice. To write with an accent is not to encourage mistakes and diminishing the importance of accuracy but to embrace accents, allowing different cultures, ideas, voices and creativities to shine through in ways the writer intended. It is to transcend boundaries or barriers related to ethnicity, nationality, gender, sexuality, class, marital/single status, parenthood, neurodivergence, ability and beyond. Schedule to take place on or within the week of Earth Day (22nd April), this event not only raises awareness to the environment and arts but also brings together creative writing, translation studies, and multilingual research to examine how linguistic diversity relates to inclusive, engaging and sustainable research. It adopts an intersectional framework that understands language (very broadly defined) as central to the formation and expression of identity. This event is Free to attend and open to all. Distance learning students would have the option to join the talks virtually.2.5 hr workshop (2-4.30pm)Date: 24th April 2026hedule13.30 Registration (light refreshment and coffee will be provided)14.00 Event starts (ice-breaker game)14.20 Mutilingualism in Leicester (Dr Yan Ying and Dr Michelle A.
