(This report is still in progress)

N.B.: This document is authored expressly for the purpose of informing the ACL Executive Board as required for the Quarter 3 2022 documentation. It is meant to be read by the ACL Executive Board and is also suitable for the ACL membership and the general public.

Efforts

After Q3, the Ethics Committee has made slower progress on its internal initiatives.

The Ethics Education and Outreach and Committee Procedure subcommittees currently have not met due to the summer conference scheduling and various members' unavailability. We expect more progress to be made as the academic semesters start again in the autumn.

Ethics Survey

Yulia Tsvetkov and Karën Fort co-chair this subcommittee.

Ethical Reviewing Guidelines

This subcommittee is chaired by Yulia Tsvetkov, assisted by Karën Fort.

Ethics Education and Outreach

We submitted a tutorial proposal understanding ethics in NLP and authoring and reviewing issues. This was accepted by the ACL-EMNLP joint workshop chairs to be featured at EACL (May, Dubrovnik).

Luciana Benotti, Karën Fort, Min-Yen Kan and Yulia Tsvetkov are the presenters and authors for the tutorial.

Committee Scope

  • For the Diversity and Inclusion role, Luciana has worked to draft a policy for per-conference, minimal guaranteed funding for D&I initiatives. Her work is awaiting further discussion and subsequent vote by the ACL exec.
