The 16th International Conference of the Association for Linguistic Typology will be organized by the Laboratoire Dynamique du Langage (DDL), CNRS, and will be held at the Lumière University of Lyon, France, on 1-3 July 2026. DDL has a long history of studying minority languages, writing grammatical descriptions, doing field research in South America, Africa, Northeast and Southeast Asia, Australia, the Caucasus and Europe, and working on phonological, grammatical and semantic typology. The conference will take place in the old part of the Lumière University, a beautiful venue located in a very dynamic part of the city with the possibility to sit in the garden or walk along the Rhône river. There are excellent public transport links (metro and tram) to other parts of the city, and numerous city bike stations are located nearby.
