ESREA's language policy is understood as being inclusive. Abstracts must be in English. Papers for the proceedings must be in English or accompanied by a detailed, working summary of the focus, methods and results of the paper in English. Talks are welcome in French or German as well as English.
For French or German speakers: it is suggested that slides to the talk be in English. At the conference there will not be any form of professional translation, but from experience we know that there are a number of colleagues who are willing and able to help and facilitate dialogue. Tolerance, respect and curiosity will do the rest.
