Language in the Human Machine Era (LITHME)

The EU COST Action Language in the Human-Machine Era (project website, EU COST register), with more than 100 collaborators across the EU and beyond, investigates how language use is influenced by information technology during its funding period 2020-24. Prof. Fuchs contributes to the project as a co-proposer, management committee member and formerly as chair of the working group on Language Variation and Change.

Collaborations within this COST Action contributed to the successful Erasmus+ proposal on Counteracting Accent Discrimination Practices in Education (CIRCE), of which Prof. Fuchs is a co-principal Investigator.

Prof. Robert Fuchs is a national representative in the management committee of the cost action and was chair of the working group on Language Variation and Change from 2020 to 2022.
