*Task Description*

With the growth of spread and importance of social media platforms, the
effect of their misuse became more and more impactful. In particular,
numerous posts contain abusive language towards certain users and hence
worsen users’ experience from communication via such platforms, while other
posts contain actual threats that potentially put platform users in danger.
The Urdu language has more than 230 million speakers worldwide with vast
representation on social networks and digital media.


We encourage participants to participate in *EmoThreat: Emotion and Threat
detection in Urdu (Nastaliq)*
