The aim of this conference is to highlight perspectives on translanguaging in both policy and practice across different arenas, with a special focus on mobility. In an age characterized by mobility, both physical (e.g., migration and travelling) and digital (e.g., diverse media), it is essential to explore the role of language and languaging. Questions of mobility are relevant in public institutions, including schools, workplaces, healthcare services, legal systems, and immigration services. Mobility across physical spaces (e.g., due to economic migration, love migration, refugee status) affects every level of the society, as evident in both societal and individual language use.
