Hello there,
My name is Ashour Abdulaziz, from Libya. I am a linguist. I have a special interest in Sociolinguistics, and the role language plays in our lives. My interest areas of Sociolinguistics are Linguistic Identity, Linguistic Landscape, Language Policy, and Planning, and language in the media (Hate Speech in particular). I also teach linguistics classes such as Linguistics, Morphology, and Syntax and other language skills classes like Listening, Speaking, and Writing.
I am also civil society and a human rights activist. I defend the cultural and linguistic rights of the Libyan Tuareg. Additionally, I defend the rights of Libyan women who are married to non-Libyans to grant their children the Libyan citizenship.
I train people on Gender-Sensitive Active Non-Violence issues, and Advocacy and networking matters.
In this blog, I will be writing about various Linguistic/Sociolinguistics issues, as well as Human rights issues.
