<p class="MsoNormal">The GLOBALEX workshop on Lexicographic Resources for Human Language Technology was held as part of the Language Resources and Evaluation Conference (LREC 2016) at Portoro¾, Slovenia, on May 24, including approximately 60 participants. The
 organizing committee consisted of the presidents and vice-presidents of Afrilex, Asialex, Australex, DSNA and Euralex, and two co-organizers of eLex, with the actual working group including Ilan Kernerman, Iztok Kosem, Lars Trap-Jensen and Simon Krek. The
 program committee (including about 40 members) selected 16 papers out of 24 submissions, each having 15 minutes for presentation plus 5 minutes for questions. More details are available on the workshop website
<a href="http://ailab.ijs.si/globalex/"><span style="color:windowtext">http://ailab.ijs.si/globalex/</span></a>, and the workshop proceedings are available at

<p class="MsoNormal">The workshop featured a roundtable discussion about possible next steps for GLOBALEX. It lasted about 90 minutes and had about 30 participants. The first part was moderated by Simon and consisted of a brief presentation of each member organization,
 including four in person, by Sonja Bosch (Afrilex), Ilan (Asialex), Lars (Euralex) and Iztok (eLex), a video by Julia Miller (Australex), and live Skype participation by Edward Finegan (DSNA). The second part was moderated by Ilan and consisted of an open
 discussion with those present including Ed by Skype. The main issues that emerged are the following:<o:p></o:p></p>
