Join Temple University Rome for an engaging and thought-provoking day exploring and discussing the intersections of language, gender, and equity in both society and the classroom.

Featuring keynote speaker Vera Gheno, a leading sociolinguist, translator, and expert in inclusive language, the event will delve into how words shape identity, power, and belonging—especially in the context of teaching Italian to American students. This event is a unique opportunity for educators, students, and language enthusiasts to reflect, discuss, and reimagine how we use language to shape a more equitable and inclusive future.
