West African Linguistic Society

The West African Linguistic Society (abbreviated as WALS) is an academic scholarly society formed in 1965 with the aim of fostering and encouraging research in the West African languages and literatures as well as providing a permanent forum for interaction and exchange of ideas among scholars of African languages. Membership of the Society is largely drawn from teachers and researchers in universities and research institutes and they include scholars from all over the world. The society publishes the Journal of West African Languages. WALS is now a member of the Federation Internationale des Langues et Literatures Modernes (FILLM).
