Aims & Scope

The Arusha Working Papers in African Linguistics (AWPAL) is a peer-reviewed, open-access, online-only international academic journal whose goal is to provide a forum for discussions about applied and theoretical issues in African linguistics. AWPAL welcomes original contributions on all aspects of African languages and linguistics, in particular those that are data-oriented and descriptive or pedagogical in nature. Nonetheless, manuscripts are accepted across all domains of linguistics on a rolling basis for consideration in our annual volume. Finally, we especially encourage and welcome contributions from graduate students and junior scholars in Africa.
