Eva Vetter is an applied linguist and has been a Professor of Language Teaching and Learning Research at the University of Vienna, Austria, since 2011. She was previously a teacher of French and geography. Her research addresses the relationship between language and power and she is interested in the multiple facets of societal and individual multilingualism. She researches topics such as language policy, heteroglossic language use, minoritized languages or political and public discourses of inclusion and exclusion. Since 2010 she has been focussing more on educational aspects of multilingualism, i.e. language education policy and multilingual approaches to teaching. She sees her academic work as a contribution to peaceful coexistence in a sustainable society.
