We hope to contribute to the preservation and promotion of these languages. This is one of the several initiatives aiming at expanding knowledge and research in NLP for underrepresented languages. We encourage the participation of everyone who shares an interest in preserving and enriching the linguistic and cultural heritage of indigenous languages in a broad sense. This way, we welcome the submission of works including languages from all Portuguese-speaking nations, like those of African origin in Angola, Mozambique, and the Atlantic islands, as well as minority languages in Portugal.

- Full papers: 8 pages+unlimited reference

For the final versions, authors of accepted papers will be given one extra content page to consider the reviews.
