Due to the world being a little unpredictable right now, we've extended the submission deadline for PROPL by a few days, so it's now 8th July 2025 AoE! conf.researchr.org/home/icfp-sp...

A reminder that our submission deadline is coming up in just over a week on the 3rd July AOE! Get your short papers in, or talk proposals, or a short provocation what's needed for programming languages research to contribute to addressing the climate crisis. propl.dev

PROPL, the workshop that inspired us to organize LOCO, is back! This time it'll take place with both ICFP and SPLASH. Have a look at the website if programming/computing as a force for good is something you care about! 💻🌍🌱📄👇

For those curious about the first workshop in 2023, the videos are up at www.youtube.com/watch?v=yZeS... (and mirrored watch.eeg.cl.cam.ac.uk/c/propl24/vi...)

Please do consider joining the conversation by submitting a short piece, especially if you are "climate curious" and want to learn how to participate. Head over to the Call for Papers for more details conf.researchr.org/home/icfp-sp... or ask co-chairs @anil.recoil.org / @dorchard.bsky.social

PROPL explores how to close the gap between state-of-the-art programming methods being developed in academia and the use of programming in climate analysis, modelling, forecasting, policy, and diplomacy. The aim is to build bridges to the current practices used in the scientific community.

This time, we welcome three sorts of submissions: short papers of up to 5 pages which will be in the ACM DL, and talk/panel proposals for discussions, and also "provocations" from climate and biodiversity practitioners who wish to report on shortcomings they face and need help from computer science

The 2nd Programming for the Planet workshop will be hybrid and co-located with ICFP/SPLASH in October in Singapore! Our call for papers is out at conf.researchr.org/home/icfp-sp..., submission deadline 3rd July 2025.
