The 1st Multidisciplinary Workshop on NLP for Democracies

The 1st Multidisciplinary Workshop on NLP for Democracies explores the intersection of computational linguistics, political science, and sociology to address the challenges of digital discourse in democratic societies. We invite researchers and practitioners to examine how natural language processing can be leveraged to analyze political polarization, misinformation, and the health of public deliberation. This workshop provides a vital platform for fostering cross-disciplinary collaboration aimed at strengthening democratic institutions through technological innovation.

We welcome original research papers, position statements, and case studies that investigate the role of NLP in political contexts, particularly those focusing on ethical AI, bias mitigation, and civic engagement. Submissions should demonstrate methodological rigor and offer critical perspectives on how linguistic analysis can support democratic processes and societal discourse.
