Activities

The first SIGWrit-sponsored workshop was the Second Workshop on Computation and Written Language (CAWL), held May 2024 in conjunction with LREC-COLING in Torino, Italy. (The first CAWL was co-located with ACL 2023, but we were not a SIG at that point.)

We received 12 submissions (of which 8 were accepted), and hosted a keynote and an invited talk. The workshop received a sponsorship of $3000 from Google.

We are currently discussing when and where our next meeting will be held; we are also considering developing an occasional online talk series.
