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
