Dear colleagues,

This is the second Call for Workshops for the 31st International Conference on Computational Linguistics, scheduled to take place from 19th to 24th January 2025 in Abu Dhabi, UAE.

Website: https://coling2025.org

submission link: https://softconf.com/coling2025/wsCL25/

Proposal submission due May 31, 2024

Call for Workshop Proposals: https://coling2025.org/calls/workshop_proposals/

The International Conference on Computational Linguistics (COLING) invites proposals for workshops to be held in conjunction with the 31st edition of COLING in 2025 in Abu Dhabi (UAE).

We solicit proposals in all areas of computational linguistics, language resources and evaluation, broadly conceived to include related disciplines such as linguistics, language documentation, natural language processing, speech and multimodal processing, computational social science, and the digital humanities.

Note: for this edition of COLING, we will not be conducting a joint call for workshops with the ACL conferences (AACL, ACL, EACL, EMNLP, NAACL). This is due to scheduling differences between COLING and the ACL conferences in 2025. COLING is happening much earlier than the *ACL conferences, which makes it impractical to coordinate a joint call. However, we anticipate a return to joint workshop calls in the future.

IMPORTANT DATES

All deadlines are 11:59 PM UTC-11:00 (“anywhere on Earth”).

Proposal submission due May 31, 2024

Notification of acceptance June 30, 2024

COLING-2025 Workshops January 19-20, 2025

COLING-2025 conference January 21-24, 2025

SUBMISSION INFORMATION

Proposals should be submitted as PDF documents. Note that submissions should essentially be ready to be turned into a Call for Workshop Papers shortly after the notification. The proposals should be at most two pages long for the main proposal, with additional two pages permitted for information about organisers, tentative program committee, and references. Hence, the entire proposal should not exceed FOUR pages in length, excluding references. Please note that workshops should either be 100% in-person or 100% virtual; hybrid formats will not be allowed. For in-person workshops, at least one workshop organiser should be physically present to run the workshop at COLING.

More information about the CFW submission can be found on the website: https://coling2025.org/calls/workshop_proposals/
