The event is organised by the Center for Research and Studies in Sociology at the Iscte - University Institute of Lisbon (CIES-Iscte), the Research Center for General and Applied Linguistics at the University of Coimbra (CELGA-ILTEC), and the Programme in Portuguese as a Foreign Language/Second Language at the Faculty of Arts of the University of Lisbon.

The main objective of the 11th WGNDV conference is to extend our knowledge on pluricentric languages and theory. To that end, we welcome scholars, policy makers, and other civil society actors from all over the world to provide their insights into the linguistic situation, the specific characteristics of pluricentric languages and their varieties, and their relevance for pluricentric theory.
