Submission Deadline: 23-Feb-2026

Large Language Models (LLMs) are rapidly evolving in multilinguality,
multimodality, reasoning, and agentic capabilities. While these
advances have transformed language and data processing, their
alignment with the research needs and epistemic values of the Social
Sciences and Humanities (SSH) remains limited.
This full-day workshop will bring together experts in Language
Technologies, and SSH to explore how multilingual, multimodal and
reasoning LLMs can assist the needs of SSH researchers and their
tasks. The primary goal of this workshop is to bridge the gap between
advances in LLMs and the specific research needs of the SSH
communities. It aims to create a collaborative space where experts in
Language Technologies and SSH can exchange knowledge, identify
opportunities, and define research priorities at the intersection of
these fields.
Overview of suggested topics:
 - Multilinguality and Cultural Diversity
 - Multimodality in SSH Research
 - Reasoning and Agentic LLMs for SSH tasks
 - Methodologies and Evaluation
 - Applications in SSH Domains
 - FAIR, Ethics, and Governance
 - Interdisciplinary Collaboration and Infrastructure
We welcome:
 - Short research papers
 - Position papers
 - Case studies
 - Posters and demos

formats, can be found here:
