India has a huge linguistic diversity and has seen concerted efforts from the Indian government and industry towards developing language resources. European Language Resource Association (ELRA) and its associate organizations have been very active and successful in addressing the challenges and opportunities related to language resource creation and evaluation. It is therefore a great opportunity for resource creators of Indian languages to showcase their work on this platform and also to interact and learn from those involved in similar initiatives all over the world. The broader objectives of the WILDRE will be · To map the status of Indian Language Resources · To investigate challenges related to creating and sharing various levels of language resources · To promote a dialogue between language resource developers and users · To provide opportunity for researchers from India to collaborate with researchers from other parts of the world *DATES * February 24, 2016 Paper submissions due March 26, 2016 Paper notification of acceptance April 6, 2016 Camera-ready papers due May 24, 2016 Workshop *SUBMISSIONS* Papers must describe original, completed or in progress, and unpublished work.
