Unser Schwerpunkt:

The Social Justice Discussion Group provides a platform for professionals to engage in discussions concerning the place, role, and consequences of language tests in various societal contexts and for diverse stakeholder groups. Our meetings are interactive, fostering group discussions and active participation. The group aims to heighten awareness of ethical considerations in testing practices and address social justice concerns inherent in our professional domain.
