STIAS Conversations is a podcast from the Stellenbosch Institute for Advanced Study. In this series, we explore the ideas, questions, and discoveries shaping our world, straight from the brilliant minds of STIAS Fellows.

In this first episode, we discuss the significance of multilingualism in a democratic society before focusing on a pivotal moment, which is the introduction of a new reference resource for one of the oldest languages in South Africa. Today's guest is the Director of the Centre for Multilingualism and Diversities Research at the University of the Western Cape and STIAS Fellow, Quentin Williams.
