Computational Workshop for Indigenous Languages
This website is intended as an add-on to the booklet that you as a participant have received by email (or will receive by email shortly) in pdf format. You will find a more current schedule and useful links here.
Current Schedule
Instead of printing a schedule into your booklet that might end up being changed, we thought we’d simply put one here that can be changed dynamically.
Where no specific start times are indicted, the overall rough schedule looks as follows:
| 9am – 9.30am | breakfast/coffee/tea and informal discussion |
| 9.30am – noon | workshopping |
| Noon – 1pm | lunch |
| 1pm – 4/5pm | workshopping |
| evenings | free/informal networking |
