Event theme(s): The MultilingualWeb project aims to explore standards and best practices that support the creation, localisation and use of multilingual web-based information.

Through a series of workshops open to the public and various communication channels, the project will spread information about what standards and best practices currently exist, and what gaps need to be filled.

The first of these workshops will take place in Madrid, Spain on 26-27 October and will be hosted by the Universidad Politécnica de Madrid (UPM) at the Escuela Técnica Superior de Ingenieros de Telecomunicación (ETSIT), which is located in "Ciudad Universitaria", a university campus in the west part of Madrid.

Objective: Survey and share information about currently available best practices and standards that can help content creators and localizers address the needs of the multilingual Web, including the Semantic Web. Look for gaps that need to be addressed. Network and share information between the various different communities involved in enabling the multilingual Web.
