EACL/ACL 2026 call for workshops
by z＠zeerak.org 13 Aug '25

13 Aug '25

[Apologies for cross-posting] Dear colleagues, It’s time again for the … Joint Call for Workshops Proposals (EACL/ACL) 2026 The Association for Computational Linguistics, the European Language Resource Association and International Committee on Computational Linguistics invite proposals for workshops to be held in conjunction with EACL 2026 or ACL 2026. We solicit proposals in all areas of computational linguistics, broadly conceived to include related disciplines such as linguistics, speech, information retrieval, and multimodal processing. Workshops will be held at one of the following conference venues: * EACL 2026 (The 19th Conference of the European Chapter of the Association for Computational Linguistics) which will be held as a hybrid conference, and physically held in Rabat, Morocco, from March 24-29, 2026 * ACL 2026 (The 64th Annual Meeting of the Association for Computational Linguistics), which will be held as a hybrid conference, and physically held in San Diego, California, from July 2-7, 2026 The workshop and tutorial co-chairs will work together to assign workshops to the conferences. They will take into account location preferences and technical constraints provided by the workshop proposers. A second call will be made in the fall for workshops colocated with conferences later in the year (e.g., EMNLP and AACL). This call thus exclusively centres EACL and ACL 2026. Important Dates EACL/ACL 2026 shared dates: Proposal submission deadline September 5, 2025 Notification of acceptance September 22, 2025 All deadlines are 11:59PM UTC-12:00 (“anywhere on Earth”). Submission Information Proposals should be submitted as PDF documents. Note that submissions should be ready to be turned into a Call for Papers to the workshop within one week of notification. The proposals should be at most two pages for the main proposal and at most two additional pages for information about the organizers, program committee, and references. Thus, the whole proposal should not be more than four pages long. Please use the LaTeX template<https://www.overleaf.com/read/ytktkdvzgshk> for your submission. The two pages for the main proposal must include: * A title, short name / acronym, and a brief description of the workshop topic and content. * Some conferences might take place only or partially virtually. We request submissions to contain a brief discussion on measures planned to make sure a workshop is successful and productive in case of a hybrid or virtual-only attendance. * A description of special requirements and technical needs. * A description of any limitations that would restrict the workshop to a specific venue (EACL or ACL). For example: if the workshop is compatible with only one of these events, logistically, thematically or otherwise, or if the workshop cannot be held at a venue for logistical reasons. * Diversity and Inclusion Efforts (see more details below) * If the workshop has been held before, a note specifying: how many prior editions occurred, where previous workshops were held, how many submissions the workshop received in the last iteration and how many papers were accepted (also specify if they were not regular papers, e.g., shared task system description papers), and an estimate of how many in-person posters the workshop attracted. * (Optional/If Known) A list of invited speakers, with an indication of which ones have already agreed and which are tentative, and sources of funding for the speakers. * (Optional) A description of any shared tasks associated with the workshop, and estimate of the number of participants. Having a shared task is optional. The submission form will request information that does not factor into the decision process, but are necessary for logistical reasons: * An estimate of the maximum number of attendees at one given time * Number of estimated in-person posters * Preferred Venue (first and second preference). Providing a second preferred venue is optional, and we assume that providing a second preference indicates its compatibility for the workshop. While we will do our best to adhere to these preferences, we cannot guarantee that they will be satisfied. * Duration of the workshop (1-day / 2-day workshop) Note that the only financial support available to workshops is a single free workshop registration for an invited speaker. The workshop organizers must bear all other costs independently, including registration for more than one invited speaker. The two pages for information about organizers, program committee, and references must include: * The names, affiliations, and email addresses of the organizers, with a brief statement (2-5 sentences) of their research interests, areas of expertise, and experience in organizing workshops and related events. * A list of Program Committee members, with an indication of which members have already agreed. Organizers should do their best to estimate the number of submissions (especially for recurring workshops) in order to (a) ensure a sufficient number of reviewers so that each paper receives 3 reviews, and (b) anticipate that no one is committed to reviewing more than 3 papers. This practice is likely to ensure on-time and thoughtful reviews. * An indication whether the workshop will consider papers submitted through ACL Rolling Review (ARR); use OpenReview as a platform (both to take papers from ARR and for their own review); or whether the workshop will only use START as a platform, and will not use ARR. In making this choice, please pay careful attention to the ARR deadlines and conference notifications. * References Submission is electronic at the following link: https://softconf.com/p/acl-workshops2026/track/ACL_EACL Diversity and Inclusion The proposals should describe the ways in which the workshop will support diversity in NLP. We suggest organizers consider the following points, while developing the proposal: * Contribution to academic diversity: The proposals could explain how the subject matter of the workshop will contribute to the diversity of the field, e.g. use of multilingual data, indications of how the described methods scale up to various languages or domains, accessibility of resources, supporting underrepresented communities of NLP and so on. * Diversifying representation: Following the WiNLP<http://www.winlp.org/winlp-2020-workshop/> initiative, we recognize the current problems of demographic imbalance in the field. Therefore, we particularly encourage submissions including members of under-represented groups in computational linguistics. The proposals should describe how their selection of invited speakers, panelists, organizers, and program committee promotes diverse representation (for example, considering underrepresented demographics based on gender, ethnicity, nationality, and so on). We also suggest including speakers and panelists, who have not appeared as a keynote speaker or panelist in recent conferences. * Diversifying participation: The proposals could describe how the call-for-papers and outreach will encourage people from marginalized groups to attend and submit to the workshop. Some examples include providing mentoring, subsidies, coordinating with affinity groups, diversifying the selection of papers and so on. Organizer Responsibilities The organizers of the accepted proposals will be responsible for publicizing and running the workshop, including reviewing submissions, producing the camera-ready workshop proceedings, organizing the meeting days, and playing their part to ensure that all participants are aware of ACL’s anti-harassment policy. It is crucial that organizers commit to all deadlines. In particular, failure to produce the camera-ready proceedings on time will lead to the exclusion of the workshop from the unified proceedings and author indexes. Workshop organizers cannot accept submissions for publication that will be (or have been) published elsewhere, although they are free to set their own policies on simultaneous submission and review. However, it is worth noting that workshops may also accept non-archival submissions, such as findings papers, for presentation, which are allowed in this case. Since the conferences will occur at different times, the timelines for the submission and reviewing of workshop papers, and the preparation of camera-ready copies, will be different for each conference. Suggested timelines for each of the conferences are given below. The workshop organizers are free to deviate from the proposed schedule for all dates that are not marked as inflexible, though changes should be made in consultation with the relevant workshop chairs. In submitting a proposal, workshop chairs will be asked to agree to the workshop non-compliance policy<https://docs.google.com/document/u/0/d/1hhocb0fXBBJhqJHoOfZtx1V1kcTATpA4IMU…>. All workshops must agree to this policy, which states that egregious cases of not living up to the responsibilities of running a workshop will be penalized by a 1-year ban on the organizers from submitting another workshop proposal. Workshop proposals for which all authors do not agree to this policy will be desk-rejected. The ACL has a set of policies on workshops. You can find the ACL’s general policies on workshops, the financial policy for workshops, and the financial policy for SIG workshops in the Conference Handbook<http://aclweb.org/adminwiki/index.php?title=Conference_Handbook>. Review Process Workshop proposals will be holistically reviewed by a committee of workshop chairs and the ACL workshop officers based on: their originality and impact, the experience of the Organizing and Program Committees, and the ethical considerations presented and adherence of the workshop proposal to ACL’s code of ethics. This committee will also allocate workshops to the conferences included in the call, taking into account location preferences and technical constraints given in the workshop proposal. However, the aim of the review process is to accept as many high-quality workshops as possible. Given space limitations at conference venues and the increasing number of workshop proposals, the review committee can not guarantee that a proposal will be co-located with their preferred venue in lieu of extenuating circumstances. The review process will have three possible outcomes: accept, in which case the workshop will be co-located with either EACL or ACL; revise and resubmit, where the organizing committee is encouraged to incorporate reviewer feedback and resubmit to the next call for workshops for AACL and EMNLP; or reject, in which the workshop proposal should not be submitted the next call, and will be desk rejected if submitted. Tentative Workshop Timelines EACL First call for workshop papers October 15, 2025 Second call for workshop papers November 12, 2025 Third call for papers December 5, 2025 Direct Submission deadline December 19, 2025 Pre-reviewed (ARR) submission deadline January 2, 2026 Notification of acceptance January 23, 2026 Camera-ready paper due February 3, 2026 Proceedings due (hard deadline) February 24, 2026 Pre-recorded video due (hard deadline) February 27, 2026 Workshop dates March 24-29, 2026 ACL First call for workshop papers December 10, 2025 Second call for workshop papers January 15, 2026 Third call for workshop papers February 20, 2026 Direct paper submission deadline March 5, 2026 Pre-reviewed ARR commitment deadline March 24, 2026 Notification of acceptance April 28, 2026 Camera-ready paper due May 12, 2026 Proceedings due (hard deadline) June 1, 2026 Pre-recorded video due (hard deadline) June 4, 2026 Workshop dates July 2-3, 2026 Workshop Chairs EACL * Adriana Pagano * Emmanuele Chersoni * Julia Ive ACL * Loic Barrault, Meta FAIR * Yang Zhao, Chinese Academy of Sciences Contact e-mail: star-acl-workshops(a)googlegroups.com

by Announce 12 Aug '25

12 Aug '25

*** Last Call for Workshop Proposals *** The Annual ACM Conference on Intelligent User Interfaces (IUI 2026) March 23-26, 2026, 5* Coral Beach Hotel & Resort, Paphos, Cyprus https://iui.hosting.acm.org/2026/ We are pleased to invite proposals for workshops to be held in conjunction with the Annual International ACM Conference on Intelligent User Interfaces (ACM IUI 2026), Paphos, Cyprus. Workshops aim to provide a venue for presenting research on emerging or specialized topics of interest and to offer an informal forum for discussing research questions and challenges. Potential workshop topics should be related to the general theme of the conference (“Where HCI meets AI”). We welcome proposals for a wide range of *full-day* or *half-day* workshops, including but not limited to: • Mini Conferences: Workshops that focus on a specific topic and may have their own paper submission and review processes. • Interactive Formats: Workshops that encourage active participation and hands-on experiences through break-out sessions or group work to explore specific topics. They may have their own paper submission and review process or target a report summarizing the discussions and outcomes. • Emerging Work Sessions: Workshops that foster discussion around emerging ideas. Organizers may raise specific topics and invite position papers, late-breaking results, or extended abstracts. • Project-Centric Formats: Workshops tied closely to a specific existing large-scale funded project(e.g., NSF, EU) with the goal to engage a broader community. • Interactive Competitions: Formats that invite individuals and teams to participate in challenges or hackathons on selected topics relevant to IUI. Review and Oversight by Workshop Chairs Proposals will be reviewed and evaluated by the Workshop Chairs. It is possible that workshops may be cancelled, shortened, merged, or restructured if there are insufficient submissions. Workshop summaries will be included in the ACM Digital Library for ACM IUI 2026. We will also publish joint workshop proceedings for accepted workshop submissions (through CEUR or a similar venue). Responsibilities of Workshop Organizers • Coordinate the Call for Papers, including solicitation, submission handling, and peer review process. • Create and maintain a dedicated website with workshop information. The IUI 2026 website will link to this page. • Prepare and communicate a Call for Participation, targeting both IUI and broader relevant communities (e.g., via mailing lists, social media, newsgroups, or offline events). • Facilitate the planned activities, including paper presentations, discussions, and/or interactive elements. • Submit a workshop summary for inclusion in the ACM Digital Library. • Collect camera-ready papers and author agreements from workshop participants for the joint workshop proceedings (CEUR or similar). Note that for the joint proceedings (CEUR or similar), submissions should be peer-reviewed and will need to meet publishers’ guidelines. CEUR, for example, requires a 5-page minimum per contribution. Note that not all workshop formats listed above may meet these requirements, and we may not be able to include them. IUI 2026 is an in-person event, and we expect workshop organizers to attend, allowing the workshop to be conducted on-site. One author per paper is expected to attend in person to present the work. Proposal Format Workshop proposals should be a maximum of four pages long (single-column format). Prepare your submission using the latest templates: Word Submission Template (https://authors.acm.org/binaries/content/assets/publications/taps/acm_submi…), or the LaTex Template (https://authors.acm.org/proceedings/production-information/preparing-your-a…). For Latex, please use “\documentclass[manuscript,review]{acmart}”. The proposals should be organized as follows: • Name and title: A one-word acronym and a full title. Please indicate “(Workshop)” after the title. • Abstract: A brief summary of the workshop. • Description of workshop topic: Should discuss the relevance of the proposed topic to IUI and its interest for the IUI 2026 audience. Include a concise discussion of why this workshop is particularly relevant for the intended audience and how it will complement and enhance topics covered at the main conference. • Previous history: List of previous workshops on this topic, including the conferences that hosted them and the number of participants. If available, report on past editions of the workshop (including URLs), along with a brief statement of the workshop series (e.g., covering topics, number of paper submissions, and participants), as well as post-workshop publications over the years and acceptance statistics. If this is the first edition of the workshop, describe how it differs from others on similar topics (e.g., by including conference names and years). • Organizer(s): Names, affiliations, emails, and web pages of the organizer(s). Provide a brief description of the background of the organizer(s). Strong proposals normally include organizers who bring differing perspectives on the topic and are actively connected to the communities of potential participants. Please indicate the primary contact person and the organizers who will attend the workshop. Also, please provide a list of other workshops organized by workshop organizers in the past. • Workshop program committee: Names and affiliation of the members of the (tentative) workshop program committee that will evaluate the workshop submissions. • Participants: Include a statement of how many participants you expect and how you plan to invite participants for the workshop. If possible, include the names of at least 10 people who have expressed interest in participating in the workshop or tutorial. • Workshop activities: A brief description of the format regarding the mix of events or activities, such as paper presentations, invited talks, panels, demonstrations, teaching activities, hands-on practical exercises, and general discussion. • Planned outcomes of the workshop: What are you hoping to achieve by the end of the workshop? Please list here any planned publications or other outcomes expected. • Length: Full-day or half-day.

Ethical and Technical Challenges for Identity-Aware AI Workshop at ECAI 2025 <https://ecai2025.org/workshops/>, Bologna, Italy, October 25-30. https://identity-aware-ai.github.io/ Workshop theme: What makes each of us unique, and which ethical and technical challenges does this imply? Overview What makes us unique? Language (and thus the automatic processing of it) is about people and what they mean. However, current practice relies on the assumptions that the involved humans are all the same, and that if enough data (and compute power) is present, the resulting generalizations will be robust enough and represent the majority. This approach often harms marginalized communities and ignores the notion of identity in models and systems. Our interdisciplinary workshop aims to raise the question of “what makes each of us unique?” to the AI community. We seek to gather researchers from diverse fields to understand how the identities of all stakeholders — e.g., the individuals projecting their views in texts, the individuals perceiving the texts, the individuals mentioned and those not mentioned in the texts — should be considered in future research in AI. Workshop Goals - The development of a shared and interdisciplinary understanding of identities and how identity is treated in AI. - The development of new methods that push the effective, fair, and inclusive treatment of individuals in AI to the next level. Topics of Interest We invite submissions on the following topics: - Approaches to model subjective phenomena: Personalization and perspectivist methods that leverage disaggregated labeled data, encoding annotator metadata on their beliefs, moral values, sociodemographic features, or personal narratives. ML methods to address the challenges of “learning from disagreements” both from the development of new models and the collection of data to train such models. - Methods for detecting and controlling bias in models and data: Techniques to audit fairness, enforce fairness constraints, and learn fair representation from data, in order to enhance the fairness of models while maintaining their predictive reliability. Ethical challenges for LLMs in identity-aware dialog and tasks: diversity, stereotypes, harms. - The role of sociodemographics in LLMs: Such as which characteristics (and disagreements) they embody and how to measure their capacity for representing and reasoning about diverse types of identities. - Challenges for applying AI methods to model socio-political phenomena: Including polarization, impact of media consumption on public opinion formation, agenda setting, deliberation support, and how integrating identity into AI methods can influence the accuracy for these tasks. - NLP work at the intersection with social psychology: The methodological foundation for quantitative investigation of identity-related topics. The reflection on best practices to reliably measure complex constructs such as morals and values. Detection and analysis of personal narratives across cultures. - Accountability of AI in the eye of the general public: The role of LLMs, and the responsibilities of AI and NLP developers for ethical use of identities. - NLP work at the intersection of survey science: The use of LLMs to model and simulate individuals and subpopulations; the role of LLMs in personalizing information elicitation; and methodological approaches to address data contamination and response validation when LLMs are used by either researchers or respondents. Submission Types We welcome the following types of submissions: - Long papers: Up to 8 pages (excluding references) - Short papers: Up to 4 pages (excluding references) - Non-archival submissions, student project presentations, mixed-media submissions: No page limit - For non-archival submissions, we welcome creative formats including: - Art, poetry, music - Blog posts - Jupyter notebooks - Teaching materials - TikToks and videos - Findings papers - Late-breaking papers - Extended abstracts - For creative format submissions, please submit a PDF containing: - A summary or abstract of your work - A link to your work (if hosted externally) - Any additional context or documentation Submission Guidelines - All submissions will be double-blind reviewed - Submissions should follow ECAI formatting guidelines <https://www.ecai2024.eu/calls/main-track> with the latex template here <https://ecai2024.eu/download/ecai-template.zip> - Submit your paper through EasyChair <https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=identityawareai2025> - Accepted papers will be published in the workshop proceedings through CEUR Workshop Format The workshop will be a half-day event featuring: - Keynote speeches from leading experts in the field - Paper presentations (oral and lightning talks) - Participatory design activity to develop a shared interdisciplinary vocabulary, identify current gaps in datasets for studying identity, and design a vision for collecting new datasets - Special student project session We are committed to ensuring that our workshop is accessible to all. The workshop will be held in a hybrid format, allowing both in-person and virtual participation. Important Dates - Submissions: 22 August 29 August - Notifications: 26 September - Camera-ready: 3 October - Workshop: 25 October Diversity & Inclusion We actively encourage submissions from underrepresented communities and countries. The workshop organizers will provide mentorship and thorough feedback, especially to first-time authors and reviewers.
