The Future of Women in NLP A Call for Action

We stand at a critical juncture in supporting women in Natural Language Processing. While there are individual success stories and isolated initiatives aimed at addressing gender imbalances, a coordinated and sustained effort is required. This involves academia, industry, and governmental bodies coming together to establish policies, funding, and programs specifically designed to dismantle barriers and support women in NLP. The future of NLP should be inclusive, diverse, and equitable, but we are not there yet.
