LANLP: Bridging Ibero and Latin American NLP communities
We organize a Networking Symposium on Latin American NLP (LANLP), focusing on natural language processing for the diverse languages of the Iberian Peninsula and Latin America. This region includes major world languages (e.g. Spanish (~558M speakers), Portuguese (~267M) as well as regional and indigenous languages. For example, Latin America alone hosts tens of millions of speakers of Quechua (~10M), Guaraní (>6M), Nahuatl (~2M), Aymara (~2M), among many others. Such languages are highly under‐resourced: over 88% of the world’s languages remain largely unsupported by language technologies. This networking event addresses that gap by promoting collaboration on ethically and culturally sensitive resource creation, evaluation, and novel methods for low-resource multilingual NLP in Iberian and Latin American languages and varieties. Our goal is to bring together communities (SEPLN, CLARIAH-ES, PROPOR, AmericasNLP, and SomosNLP) to share cutting-edge research, language resources, and best practices.
