About the Conference

The rapid expansion of the digital era — and the recent surge of artificial intelligence in educational technology — is reshaping how we teach, learn, and research languages. To stay ahead of this trend, meet practical demands, and advance Ton Duc Thang University's vision as a research-intensive institution, the Faculty of Foreign Languages, in collaboration with esteemed international partners, is organizing the 3rd International Conference on Language Development (ICLD 2027).

ICLD 2027 is a forum for exchange and collaboration among researchers and practitioners worldwide; a platform to discuss emerging trends and methods in applying technology and AI to English language teaching and research; and a place to grow the academic network for professional development and innovation in scholarship.
