====== UniDive-related international projects and networks ======

==== Initiaives from which UniDive originated ====

  * [[https://universaldependencies.org/|Universal Dependencies]] (UD) – open community effort with over 300 contributors who address cross-linguistically consistent grammatical annotation and have already produced more than 200 treebanks in over 100 languages; unfunded (except for local funding of the individual contributors).
  * [[http://parseme.eu/|PARSEME]] – IC1207  COST Action on MWEs and parsing, with 200 researchers from 31 countries

==== Other international initiatives ====
  * [[https://unimorph.github.io/|UniMorph]] – a collaborative effort (coordinated by US experts) to improve how NLP processes complex morphology in the world's languages, particularly those which are low-resourced
  * [[https://newnlp.princeton.edu/|NewNLP]] – US-EU initiative for supporting NLP technology in low-resourced languages and dialects.
  * [[http://matrix.ling.washington.edu/index.html|LinGO Grammar Matrix]] and [[https://hpsg.hu-berlin.de/Projects/CoreGram.html|CoreGram]] – projects focused on implementing common core grammar components for various languages in order to empirically test language universals
