report from the language diversity event at EACL 2021

(sent on behalf of the organizers of the event on language diversity)

Dear colleagues,

Last April we organised an open online event on language diversity as part of EACL 2021's diversity and inclusion initiatives. We have prepared a detailed report of the language diversity panel and games, including poll results, screenshots, data used to prepare the panel and especially the games, available here:

We hope that this can be useful to (a) encourage further actions and discussions related to language diversity in our community and conferences (e.g. the ACL 2022's special theme), (b) replicate and extend the games.
