The third Swedish European Language Resource Coordination (ELRC) workshop is a virtual workshop organised by the Institute for Language and Folklore.

The theme of the workshop is machine translation. In particular, machine translation within the public sector, and the importance of language data for building machine translation systems. Representatives from different government agencies will share their experiences of using or building machine translation systems. There will also be a session on guidelines for language data sharing within the public sector, as well as on the CEF eTranslation Platform.

The workshop will also include an extra session on terminology, focusing on Sweden's National Term Bank and the Federated eTranslation TermBank Network.
