The Human Science Research Council will be hosting a symposium on language practices in South African higher education institutions this coming weekend. The big issue is how an overwhelming majority of instruction at tertiary institutions and business is still conducted in English or Afrikaans which continues to marginalize a large group of the black student population. We use this opportunity now to talk about the difference a change in language policy will make for the marginalized group

GUEST: Dr Alude Mahali - Conference convener for the Human Science Research Council
