Finally, we have Elisabeth A. Mager Hois, Professor at Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México, with a strong interest and expertise in cultural assimilation, ethnic consciousness and ethical considerations.
Next, we have Lise Dobrin, Professor at the Department of Anthropology and Linguistics Program at the University of Virginia. She will share insights gained through nearly thirty years work with Arapesh people in the Pacific island nation of Papua New Guinea.
What is considered right or wrong in a specific culture? What aspects should be promoted within a culture to be consistent with their values without being biased? Policy plays a big role. Accessibility is a must. Thanks @kalikabali for the inspiring talk at @c3_nlp#ACL2024NLP
"You [cross-cultural NLP] are going against the flow of global cultural assimilation that has been going on for at least the past 200 years - it's a worthy battle, but a very tough one"
