PAPERS
Call for Workshop and Tutorial Proposals
The European Association for Machine Translation (EAMT) invites proposals for workshops and tutorials to be held in conjunction with the EAMT 2027 conference taking place in Barcelona, Catalonia, from 3 to 6 May 2027 with workshops and tutorials to be held on 6 May. We solicit proposals in all areas of machine translation, including LLMs applied to translation, computer-assisted translation technologies, spoken language translation and related topics.
Workshops are intended to provide the opportunity for MT-related communities of interest to spend focused time together advancing the state of thinking or the state of practice in their area of interest or endeavour. The aim of a tutorial is primarily to help the audience to develop understanding of specific technical, applied, and business matters related to research, development, and use of MT and translation technology. Presentations of specific technological solutions or systems are welcome, provided that they serve as illustrations of broader scientific considerations.
Workshops are generally scheduled as full-day events, although half-day workshops are also possible. Tutorials are scheduled as half-day events.
Important Dates
- Proposal submission deadline: 31 October 2026
- Notification of acceptance: 25 November 2026
- Proceedings of the workshop: 25 April 2027 (to be compiled by the workshop organisers)
- Abstract deadline for tutorial organisers: 10 April 2027
- Deadline for sending tutorial materials: 26 April 2027
- Workshop/Tutorial date: 6 May 2027

Submission Information
Proposals should be submitted as PDF documents. They must be submitted electronically via EasyChair.
Submissions should be formatted according to the templates specified below. Anonymisation is not required.
Submissions should be no longer than four pages (excluding references), and submitted as PDF files to EasyChair EAMT 2027 (submission type: EAMT2027 Workshops and Tutorials).
WORKSHOPS
Workshop submissions should be ready to be turned into a Call for Papers for the workshop within two weeks of notification.
The proposals must not exceed four pages and include:
- The title of the workshop
- The names, affiliations, and email addresses of the organisers, with a brief description (2-5 sentences) of their research interests, areas of expertise, and experience in organising workshops and related events.
- A list of Programme Committee members, with an indication of which members have already agreed.
- A brief description of the workshop topic and content, together with a brief justification of its fit for EAMT 2027.
- A list of potential speakers and alternates whom you intend to invite to present at the workshop.
- An estimate of the number of attendees.
- A description of any shared tasks associated with the workshop (if any), and an estimate of the number of participants.
- A description of special requirements and technical needs, if any.
- If the workshop has been held before, a note specifying where previous workshops were held, how many submissions the workshop received, how many papers were accepted (also specify if they were not regular papers, e.g., shared task system description papers), and how many attendees the workshop attracted.
- An outline of the intended workshop programme, with a clear indication of whether a three-hour slot (half-day) or a six-hour slot (full day) is requested for this workshop. These time limits do not include coffee breaks, e.g., a half-day workshop in fact occupies a 3.5-hour slot (one coffee break), and a full-day workshop occupies an 8-hour slot (two coffee breaks and a lunch break).

Important Dates
Workshop proposals will be evaluated according to their relevance to EAMT, their originality and impact, and the experience of the organising team and Programme Committee.

Organisers’ Responsibilities
Workshops
The organisers of the accepted proposals will be responsible for publicising and running the workshop, including reviewing submissions, producing the camera-ready workshop proceedings and publishing them in the ACL Anthology, as well as organising the schedule with local EAMT organisers.
For every accepted workshop, we offer one free registration for the EAMT 2027 conference to one workshop organiser.
Tutorials
Tutorial organisers must provide an abstract of their tutorial for inclusion in the conference registration material by the specific conference deadlines. The description should be in two formats: (a) an ASCII version that can be included in email announcements and published on the conference website, and (b) a PDF version for inclusion in the electronic proceedings (detailed instructions will be provided).
Tutorial speakers must provide tutorial materials by 26 April 2027. The final submitted tutorial materials must include copies of the course slides and a bibliography for the material covered in the tutorial.
