Hello All,
We are pleased to announce the *Gender Rewriting* shared task as part of the Workshop on Arabic NLP WANLP2022 https://sites.google.com/view/wanlp2022/.
*Summary:* The task of gender rewriting refers to generating alternatives to a given sentence to match different target user gender contexts (e.g., a female speaker with a male listener, a male speaker with a male listener, etc.). This requires changing the grammatical gender (masculine or feminine) of certain words referring to the users (speaker/1st person and listener/2nd person). In this task, we focus on Arabic, a gender-marking morphologically rich language. The task of gender rewriting was introduced by Alhafni et al. (2022).
*Organizers: *Bashar Alhafni, Ossama Obeid, Houda Bouamor, and Nizar Habash.

Looking forward to your participation, Salam Khalifa (On behalf of the WANLP publicity chairs)
