KONVENS (Konferenz zur Verarbeitung natürlicher Sprache/Conference on Natural 
Language Processing) is an annual conference series on computational 
linguistics (biennial until 2018) that started in 1992 and that is organized 
under the auspices of the German Society for Computational Linguistics and 
Language Technology, the Special Interest Group on Computational Linguistics of 
the German Linguistic Society, the Austrian Society for Artificial Intelligence 
and SwissText.


CALL FOR SHARED TASK PROPOSALS


Shared tasks need to be in line with the GermEval campaign that focuses on NLP
