The American Council of Teachers of Russian (ACTR) invites proposals for the 50th Anniversary International Virtual Conference on the study and teaching of the Russian language. The conference is free and open to members and non-members of the ACTR. 

This milestone conference event will take place April 25-26, 2025, as we celebrate the 50th anniversary of the American Council of Teachers of Russian (ACTR). We will reflect on significant achievements in the field of teaching Russian language and culture while exploring innovative approaches to meet the challenges of the future. All sessions will be recorded and posted on the ACTR’s Youtube channel.  

ACTR welcomes submissions from both early-career and established scholars, teachers and researchers from all countries and regions where Russian is taught as a second, third, or heritage language. We especially encourage submissions from colleagues from under-represented groups and/or who teach at institutions serving minority, inner-city, or rural populations.
