CALICO 2025

Converging Realities and Realms of Possibility

May 27-31, San Diego State University, San Diego, California

San Diego County is home to speakers of over 40 languages and from more than 130 countries. With millions of people moving between the US and Mexico each year, the San Diego–Tijuana metropolitan area is the busiest land-border crossing in the world. Inspired by this dynamic backdrop and by the vibrant linguistic and intercultural encounters that take place in this region, our conference theme “Converging Realities and Realms of Possibility” invites participants to explore the evolving landscape of language and technology, and the transformative potential that arises when existing boundaries are transcended or expanded. We look forward to seeing you in San Diego! 

Location

CALICO 2025 will be hosted by San Diego State University’s Language Acquisition Resource Center (SDSU-LARC). The SDSU Main Campus will be the location for all conference events.
