WHOM WE ARE ADDRESSING
- CLASTA addresses the scientific community of ITALIAN RESEARCHERS who deal specifically with topics related to Communication and Language Development in populations with typical and atypical development, covering a wide range of areas from the use of gestures and words in early years to the processes of production and understanding of texts and conversations in later stages of development.
- CLASTA addresses SECTOR PRACTITIONERS such as psychologists, speech and language therapists, physiotherapists, neuropsychologists, pediatricians, doctors specialized in child and adolescent neuropsychiatry, audiology, phoniatrics and otorhinolaryngology with the aim of achieving a beneficial interaction between research and intervention.
- Finally, CLASTA addresses STUDENTS, PRACTITIONERS and TEACHERS, contributing to highly specialized training.
CLASTA organizes every year a two-day conference (Giornate CLASTA) that gathers researchers and practitioners working within the field of language and communication development in typical and atypical populations. The Giornate CLASTA include keynote lectures, thematic symposia and poster sessions.
Since 2014, CLASTA has also been promoting a working group that includes more than 20 Associations, Organizations, and Institutions, for the implementation of a Consensus Conference on primary language impairment. The Consensus Conference is organized in collaboration with the Federation of Italian Speech and Language Therapists.
