As part of the Festival of Languages, we are highlighting the case studies of some of our recent graduates: Ana Ross (Chinese and Russian, Class of 2026) and Alistair Grant (Chinese and German, Class of 2026) explored linguistic diversity as part of an EDI campaign.

Ana’s project examines the political and identity implications of simplified and traditional Chinese characters, while Alistair’s explores accent discrimination and language attitudes in Chinese-speaking contexts.

The campaign draws parallels with research on accent bias in English-speaking contexts, highlighting linguistic discrimination as a broader structural issue rather than simply a matter of individual prejudice. Their posters are currently on display at the Byre Theatre.
