Learning Disabilities Worldwide (LDW®), located in Weston, Massachusetts, U.S.A., is an educational and scientific
nonprofit organization concerned with learning disabilities (LD) and related problems. Since its conception in 1965,
LDW® has been a global voice of hope and the gateway to a world of opportunities for people with LD. We are pleased
to announce our first conference outside the US. The Conference Committee invites proposals for sessions related to its
theme ”Learning Disabilities: Research and Education“. Areas of interest include all aspects of language-based and
nonverbal LD, ADHD, dyslexia, reading difficulties, dyscalculia, dysgraphia, processing disorders, and developmental
disabilities. We are interested in a broad spectrum of research and practical presentations in these areas. The
purpose of the conference is to present and exhibit the most up- to- date information to a diverse audience, which
includes researchers and practitioners.
