Registration Form of Summer School 2026 - ONLINE

Following the great success of the first Summer School of Sign Language Studies in Berlin, we are delighted to invite you to the 2nd Summer School of Sign Language Studies, hosted by Tallinn University in Tallinn, Estonia.

This Summer School offers a vibrant international meeting place for upper-level BA, MA and PhD students, as well as postdoctoral researchers who are eager to engage with cutting-edge research in sign language studies. Over five inspiring days, participants will connect with peers and early-career researchers while exploring a wide range of contemporary topics in the field.

Our goal is to foster an open, inclusive and dynamic academic environment through lectures, hands-on workshops, panel discussions and poster sessions. The programme features five lectures presenting diverse methodological approaches to sign language research, complemented by poster presentations where participants can showcase their own work and ongoing projects.

We also plan to offer the Summer School through an online platform. Online participants will be able to watch the lectures and panel discussions. The other parts of the programme will not be available online.

The online participation fee is €80. This fee helps cover the technical costs, expenses related to the lecturers and other organisational costs. On-site services and activities, including snacks, lunches and other provisions available to in-person participants, are not included in the online ticket. The excursion on Wednesday, 26 August, is also not included.
