The 6th Annual Mahlete Gumaye Cultural Event will be held in Toronto, Canada, on July 27th-29th, 2024, and is calling for abstract submissions for research presentations on the Tigray Region’s culture, language, and heritage. We welcome abstracts that explore these and related themes and look forward to a dynamic exchange of thoughts. The people in Tigray have affluent linguistic and heritage values with distinctive cultural practices. Nonetheless, during the last couple of years, their ethnolinguistic identity and cultural heritage values have been threatened. This event, among other things, aims to provide a platform for researchers to share their findings and insights on the theme.
Thematic Scope:
- Tigray folksongs: Gumaye and others
- Tigray material culture, social performances, and folk arts.
- Languages in the Tigray National Regional State (Tigrigna, Saho, Kunama, Gǝʿǝz, etc.): history and development.
- Ethno-linguistic, cultural-heritage values, and identity in Tigray.
- The impact of Northern Ethiopia’s war and damage on the emotional values of the societies in Tigray.
- Preservation of endangered socio-linguistic values and cultural heritage in Tigray.
- Tigray cultural rehabilitation and healing.
- History and archeology.
- And related themes.
Abstracts should be no more than 300 words and must include a title, author(s) name, affiliation, and email address. The submission deadline is 30 April 2024, midnight Toronto time, which is directly to be sent to gumaye.org@gmail.com. The presentations will happen in a hybrid format of both physical and virtual (zoom) formats. Selected papers will be notified by 15 May 2024. Proceeding’s publication will follow up on the presentations together with the 5th annual conferences. We strongly encourage the diversity of themes and presenters. Thank you!
