Summary

The "Proceedings of the 1st Workshop on Multilinguality in the Era of Large Language Models (MeLLM 2026)" document the inaugural workshop focused on the intersection of large language models and multilingualism. Published in July 2026 by the Association for Computational Linguistics, these proceedings were edited by Kaiyu Huang, Fengran Mo, Pinzhen Chen, and Meng Jiang. The workshop took place in San Diego, United States, and its content is accessible via Anthology ID 2026.mellm-1.0, with a DOI of 10.18653/v1/2026.mellm-1.0. This volume serves as a foundational collection of research presented at MeLLM, addressing critical challenges and advancements in developing and applying LLMs across diverse linguistic contexts. It provides a record of the discussions and contributions from the first event in this specialized domain.
