Conferences

EACL 2024 took place in Malta between the March 17 and 22. The Conference included 5 Tutorials and 20 Workshops. EACL 2023 receive 1,275 submissions via ARR, 474 papers then committed to EACL 2024, of which 226 were accepted to the main conference, and a further 163 to the Findings of the EACL. The pool of potential candidates numbered 1,114 papers, yielding an overall acceptance rate of 20.3% to the main conference, and 14.5% more to Findings. This is comparable to other recent *ACL conferences (EACL 2023 quoted 24.1% and 17.2% respectively). The conference programme also featured three papers from the Transactions of the Association for Computational Linguistics (TACL) journal, and one from the Computational Linguistics (CL) journal.

EACL 2025 will be part of ACL 2025, as ACL is taking place in Europe in 2025 (in Vienna, Austria).

EACL 2026 has its location unknown yet. We are working on a call for bids and on appointing a general chair and a PC chair.

Finances

The transfer of signatories on the EACL account is still in progress. This transfer proves to be difficult due to the paperwork and multiple signatures required from people in various international locations. The Board confirm the wish of making the ACL shadow account the main EACL account, as the need for a Europe-based bank account is still diminishing.
