Call for Papers: NLP for Sustainability (NLP4Sustain) Workshop 2025

With this workshop, we want to provide an interdisciplinary forum for discussing research, progress, and challenges in the context of NLP and sustainability. We invite submissions about NLP-based analysis of sustainability-related texts, sustainable NLP models and evaluation practices in general. Authors and other participants will engage with each other in a poster session and there will be an interdisciplinary invited talk with an ensuing discussion.

We invite technical, survey, and position papers, as long (8 page) or short (4 page) papers (plus references and appendices) written in English and formatted according to the ACL stylesheet.

Relevant Topics
• analyses and classifications of sustainability-related texts (such as company reports, advertisements, legal texts, …)
• generation of explanations, critiques, summaries, … of sustainability-related texts
• multimodal models related to sustainability, such as language-vision or climate-impact models
