for Computational Linguistics

March 9-14, 2027, Athens, Greece

*Details*: https://2027.eacl.org/calls/papers/

*Overview*

The 20th Conference of the European Chapter of the Association for
Computational Linguistics (EACL 2027) invites the submission of long and
short papers on substantial, original, and unpublished research on 
Natural
Language Processing. EACL 2027 will take place in Athens, Greece, from 
March
9 to 14, 2027.

*Submission information*

EACL 2027 will use ACL Rolling Review (ARR) as its reviewing system, but 
final
decisions will be made by the conference. Both the submission of 
articles for
review and the commitment of reviewed articles to the conference will be
handled via the OpenReview platform, in a two-step process:

* Authors submit articles to ARR, where submissions receive reviews and
   meta-reviews from ARR reviewers and action editors.

* Authors commit their reviewed articles to a publication venue (e.g. 
EACL
  2027), where Senior Area Chairs and Program Chairs make acceptance 
decisions
from the ARR reviews and meta-reviews.

Papers must be submitted, at the latest, by the ARR 2026 August cycle. 
Papers
that have received reviews and a meta-review from ARR (whether from the 
ARR
2026 August cycle or an earlier ARR cycle) may be committed to EACL via 
the
commitment link. Dual submissions are not allowed.
The authors should contact ARR with any questions about the review 
process at
editors [at] aclrollingreview.org. For questions about commitment and
post-review topics, contact eacl2027-pcs [at] googlegroups.com.

*Special Theme: The Human in Language*

The EACL 2027 special theme, "The Human in Language", invites papers 
that
explore how the human sciences of language can inform and shape NLP 
research
across the full research cycle: model development, representation 
learning,
data collection and annotation, evaluation, interpretability, 
interaction, and
deployment. We also welcome work that uses NLP methods and contemporary
language models to advance the scientific study of language, cognition,
communication, and the brain, while the central focus of the track 
remains on
strengthening the role of the language sciences as a source of 
scientific
grounding, methodological guidance, and conceptual insight for NLP 
itself.

*Long Papers*

Long paper submissions must describe substantial, original, completed 
and
unpublished work. Long papers may consist of up to 8 pages of content, 
plus
unlimited pages for references and appendices. Upon acceptance, long 
papers
will be given one additional page of content (i.e. up to 9 pages) in the
proceedings so that reviewers' comments can be taken into account.

*Short Papers*

Short paper submissions must describe original and unpublished work. A 
short
paper is not a shortened long paper; instead, short papers should have a 
point
that can be made in a few pages. Short papers may consist of up to 4 
pages of
content, plus unlimited references and appendices. Upon acceptance, 
short
papers will be given one additional page of content (i.e. up to 5 pages) 
in the
proceedings so that reviewers' comments can be taken into account.

*Presentation at the Conference*

All accepted papers must be presented at the conference to appear in the
proceedings. The conference will include both in-person and virtual
presentation options. Papers without at least one presenting author 
registered
by the early registration deadline may be subject to rejection. Long and 
short
papers will be presented orally or as posters, as determined by the 
program
committee. While short papers will be distinguished from long papers in 
the
proceedings, there will be no distinction in the proceedings between 
papers
presented orally and papers presented as posters.
