📣 Call for Submissions Now Open!
Unicode is pleased to announce that session proposals for UTW 2025 are now being accepted!
We are seeking proposals for workshops, seminars, case studies, and tutorials that center around:
- Unicode i18n libraries
- Locale data frameworks
- Globalization tooling
- Localization pipelines
- Input methods
- Character encoding
- Text rendering …and more!
Tutorial topics might include: font design and Unicode properties, introduction to Software Internationalization (i18n), and how to best support Bidirectional text.
Come connect with other Unicode users, share your knowledge and experience, and help us envision the future of Unicode technology. You will come away with deeper knowledge on how to solve tough problems in the i18n and l10n space and how to engineer products that work better for global users. Program and product managers who work with engineering teams are also strongly encouraged to join and propose sessions.
Deadline for submissions is June 30, 2025 by 5:00PM PT. Proposals will be reviewed in July and session hosts will be notified late July.
‼️Note: To encourage maximum collaboration amongst the attendees, this is an in-person-only event.
