On November 12 from 15:30 – 18:00 at UZH center, the Digital Society Initiative together with LiRI will hold a public panel discussion on “What does and what should AI know?”.
On September 30, 2025, the first version of the official CLARIN citation guidelines were published. They define the minimal information required when referencing datasets archived within the CLARIN network. We encourage the CLARIN-CH community to make use of these guidelines as they will strengthen the visibility of shared resources.
K-centres are the cornerstone of the CLARIN Knowledge Infrastructure. Two of the 38 centres are either fully developed, or co-hosted by Swiss institutions. LLMs4SSH is a virtual centre in which language researchers from UZH and USI collaboratively support researchers in the effective use of large language models for the social sciences and humanities. Developed by the Digital Discourse Lab at ZHAW, CLARIN-APPLIED is a K-centre offering services concerning applied discourse analysis with the focus on multilingual corpora and corpora suitable for comparative analysis.
Register and attend the Swiss FRILS planning workshop organized by USI, LiRI, and CLARIN-CH. Learn more about the work done in the swissuniversities context, reflect in groups on the future of Swiss research infrastructure, and find out about issues regarding governance and funding.
On October 9, 2025 the newly launched national collaborative effort SENPro invites the research community to take part in their online event. The pivotal creation of an EOSC Federation of Nodes seeks to enable Open Science to thrive and reduce fragmentation on a national level. SENPro’s mission is to strengthen Switzerland’s contribution to the European Open Science movement and to support the broader vision of EOSC: Establishing a framework for its research data and services according to the FAIR principles.
CLARIN has developed a search engine that pools results from different corpora made available by multiple CLARIN centres. Such an aggregated search engine now also exists for Swiss language corpora: CLARIN-CH content search.
Submit a data pitch abstract for the CLARIN-CH Day 2025 at UNIL on October 31, 2025. Submission is free and easily done through the submission form.
