Does your organisation work with #language #data in #Arabic, #Tagalog, #signLanguage, #Kannada, #Tamil, #Burmese, #Croatian, #Tigrinya, #Vietnamese, #Thai, #Pashto, #Uzbek, #German, #French or #Kurdish?

The @mozilladatacollective has an open #CfP to fund the uplift or creation of datasets in this space that focus on dialogic interaction, multimodal - so video or speech paired with transcription, or which focus on the intersectionality of under-represented contexts or domains.

Is that your organisation?

@fionabradley correct. The idea would be to have jurisdictions that would be able to take on the work to manage their own “instance” and feed to the federation. We can fix things how it suits us in our context and not be shocked when our records suddenly reflect the Gulf of America…
