Participate in the MultiPRIDE shared task at EVALITA 2026 to explore the detection of reclaimed slurs in LGBTQ+ contexts across multiple languages.

The MultiPRIDE shared task is calling for participation at EVALITA 2026. This task focuses on the multilingual automatic detection of reclamation of slurs in the LGBTQ+ context. Researchers, practitioners, and students are invited to explore features and issues related to reclaimed language.

Key aspects to investigate include:

• Textual content (arguments, slurs, denigratory words, self-labeling, figures of speech)
• Contextual information from users’ profiles (when available)

Two tasks are proposed:

• Task A: Textual Content – classification based on tweet content only
• Task B: Contextual Content – classification using both tweet content and author’s profile information

MultiPRIDE is a multilingual task involving Italian, Spanish, and English data. More details are available on the MultiPRIDE website.
