European Systemic Functional Linguistics AssociationThere has been a regular European meeting since the 1980s, stemming from the annual meeting in Nottingham, under Margaret Berry. In 1993 the meeting went regional, with a meeting in Madrid, followed by Antwerp, and after that in many European countries. In 2002 the informal organisation behind the conference was made slightly more formal, with Geoff Thompson elected as Chair, and a steering committee elected. During the 2004 meeting, the association decided to name the association as the "European Systemic Functional Linguistics Association" (ESFLA). The meeting is to be called the "European Systemic Functional Linguistics Conference and Workshop". For more information: See the ESFLA Website.
