AraGenre 2026 shared task - 2nd Call for Participation

📢 AraGenre Shared Task – 2nd Call for Participation

We are pleased to invite additional teams to join the AraGenre Shared Task at ArabicNLP @ EMNLP 2026.

AraGenre is a challenging shared task on hierarchical, definition-guided Arabic genre classification, designed to evaluate how well NLP systems can generalise from limited training data to unseen genre-definition combinations.

We are delighted by the growing interest in the task, with more than 25 teams already registered. Several participants have already achieved impressive scores on the development leaderboard, making the competition increasingly challenging.

Participants will have the opportunity to describe their approaches in a shared task system paper to appear in the final proceedings

Can your system beat the current top-performing approaches?
