- G. Pauw, G. D. Schryver, Lori S. Levin. 2009. Proceedings of the First Workshop on Language Technologies for African Languages. Abstract: In multilingual situations, language technologies are crucial for providing access to information and opportunities for economic development. With somewhere between 1,000 and 2,000 different languages, Africa is a multilingual continent par excellence and presents acute challenges for those seeking to promote and use African languages in the areas of business development, education, research, and relief aid.
