Conferences
EACL-2021, the 16th conference of the EACL, will take place virtually from 19 to 23 of April, 2021. It was supposed to be held in Kyiv, Ukraine but moved online due to the pandemic. The local organization team is still Kyiv-based, with members from Grammarly and from the Ukrainian Catholic University. The general chair is Paola Merlo (University of Geneva) and the program chairs are Jörg Tiedemann (University of Helsinki) and Reut Tsarfaty (Bar Ilan University).
In 2022, EACL will be part of ACL; in 2023, assuming that on-site conferences will be possible, we plan to hold the conference in Kyiv, Ukraine, with the original local organization team of 2021.
In future years, we would be happy to streamline the process of finding venues using a third-party PCO as an alternative to the traditional bidding and conference organization model, hopefully together with the other ACL chapters.
Website
We renewed our appearance in 2020 thanks to the help of our Student Board members. The new website is [1]. We strive to make the information on the website as updated as possible.
Finances
We are still awaiting transfer of signatories on the EACL account, which has not happened since the new treasurer took over in 2018. This transfer proves to be difficult due to the paperwork and multiple signatures required from people in various international locations.
We would also like to make our ACL shadow account our main account, as the need for a Europe-based bank account is diminishing.
