Speech and language technology (SLT), and particularly dialog technology,
has the potential to help educate, facilitate medical treatment, provide
access to services and information, empower, support independent living,
and enable communication and cultural exchange between communities.

social good.  It will promote novel use cases, cutting edge research and
technological developments in any domain which facilitates society,
building awareness of the opportunities that SLT offers. The workshop will
foster networking among researchers and service providers, leading to
further initiatives to develop this highly interdisciplinary area of speech
and language research and technology.We welcome submissions on applications

the following:
