This is the fifth international Workshop on Sino-Tibetan Languages of southwest China organized under the auspices of the Department of Chinese, Nankai University. In the vein of previous events, and also as southwest China is home to a good number of little-explored Sino-Tibetan languages some of which are on the edge of extinction, this STLT-2019 will continue to seek the advancement of the study of non-Sinitic Sino-Tibetan languages of southwest China through international cooperation.
