We are happy to announce that the CLARIN.SI Projects webpage now holds descriptions of projects that were supported by CLARIN.SI in 2019. Similar to 2018, the projects’ aims were diverse and covered upgrading existent tools and resources to creating new ones. The projects and the number of new entries in the repository show the growing interest and awareness among researchers with regard to language resources and technologies.

The CLARIN.SI Call for Projects for 2020 will be published in March.
