WoLLIC 2026
32nd Workshop on Logic, Language, Information and Computation
3-6 August 2026
Lima, Peru

ORGANISATION
Peruvian Computer Society (SPC)
Universidad Nacional de Ingeniería (UNI), Lima, Peru
Center of Informatics, Federal University of Pernambuco, Brazil

WoLLIC is an annual international forum on interdisciplinary research
involving formal logic, computing and programming theory, and natural
language and reasoning. Each meeting includes invited talks and tutorials
as well as contributed papers. The thirty-second WoLLIC will be held at
Universidad Nacional de Ingeniería (UNI), Lima, Peru, August 3 to 6 2026.

SCOPE
Contributions are invited on all pertinent subjects, with particular
interest in cross-disciplinary topics. Typical but not exclusive areas of
interest are: non-classical logics; foundations of computing, programming
and Artificial Intelligence (AI); novel computation models and paradigms;
broad notions of proof and belief; proof mining, type theory, effective
learnability and explainable AI; formal methods in software and hardware
development; logical approach to natural language and reasoning; logics of
programs, actions and resources; foundational aspects of information
organization, search, flow, sharing and protection; foundations of
mathematics; philosophical logic; philosophy of language.

PAPER SUBMISSION
Proposed contributions should be in English, and consist of a scholarly
exposition accessible to the non-specialist, including motivation,
background, and comparison with related works. Articles should be written
in the LaTeX  format of LNCS by Springer (see author's instructions at
https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.springer.com/gp/computer-science/lncs/conference-proceedings-guidelines__;!!IBzWLUs!QGxFdGwt7APn4aC-2xx73Zc3TMRkzxCZW9I2htkaVMHFxPyP6IQ83x4A06YwD3QLpfKOhqvpQEQC__SUstFy1Fk923lc$ 
They must not exceed 12 pages, with up to 5 additional pages for references
and technical appendices. The paper's main results must not be published or
submitted for publication in refereed venues, including journals and other
scientific meetings. It is expected that each accepted paper be presented
at the meeting by one of its authors in person. (At least one author is
required to pay a full, on-site registration fee before granting that the
paper will be published in the proceedings.) Papers must be submitted
electronically at the WoLLIC 2026 EasyChair website
https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=wollic2026__;!!IBzWLUs!QGxFdGwt7APn4aC-2xx73Zc3TMRkzxCZW9I2htkaVMHFxPyP6IQ83x4A06YwD3QLpfKOhqvpQEQC__SUstFy1KiJJwFN$  [easychair.org].

PROCEEDINGS
The proceedings of WoLLIC 2026, including both invited and contributed
papers, will be published in advance of the meeting as a volume in
Springer's LNCS series. In addition, abstracts will be published in the
Conference Report section of the Logic Journal of the IGPL, and selected
contributions will be published (after a new round of reviewing) as a
special post-conference WoLLIC 2026 issue of a scientific journal (tba).

SPECIAL SESSION: MOVIE SCREENING “JOURNEYS OF BLACK MATHEMATICIANS”
In a special session at WoLLIC 2026, it is planned to screen a documentary
film that explores the groundbreaking achievements of African American
mathematicians: "Journeys of Black Mathematicians: Creating Pathways"
(2025, 59 min.) is the second of two documentary films produced by Zala
Films as part of the "Journeys of Black Mathematicians" project started in
collaboration with the Simons Laufer Mathematical Sciences Institute
(SLMath) in 2020.
