Project title Organic.Lingua: Demonstrating the potential of a multilingual

Web portal for Sustainable Agricultural & Environmental Education

Funded by the CIP ICT PSP Theme 6: Multilingual Web

Objective 6.2: Multilingual Online Services

Duration 36 months 1/3/2011 - 28/2/2014

Overall budget: 3.500.000 euros Community funding: 1.750.000 euros (50%)

Project website: www.organic-lingua.eu

Enhance the existing Organic.Edunet Web portal by

introducing automated multilingual services that will

further support the uptake of the portal by its targeted audiences,

facilitate the multilingual features of the portal, and

further extend its geographical and linguistic coverage.

Organic.Edunet (http://www.organic-edunet.eu) not fully exploiting language technologies

Translation error prone and time consuming Opportunities to enhance the quality and

efficiency of cross-language functions

Existing solution not using linguistic resources and tools

Cross-lingual search not enabled Fragmentation of resource descriptions in

several languages Organic.Edunet to be transformed into a truly

multilingual service

Advance in the identification of user needs regarding linguistic support in on-line information services

Identify and explore new or anticipated user interface, functional and technical requirements related to linguistic technologies

Enhance the approach to linguistic support and coverage of the existing Organic.Edunet infrastructure.

Devise and validate innovative and effective methods, processes and workflows for linguistic support in Organic.Edunet

Enhance, extend and re-engineer the existing Organic.Edunet Web portal towards a wider and cost-effective multilingual support◦ broaden the current audience and impact of the service.

Deploy large pilots trials that demonstrate a cost-effective approach for delivering language technologies in existing Web portals based on open standards and open source software,

Develop good practice guides and awareness on the practical application of language technologies,

“Boost the usage, exploitation and extension of knowledge on Organic Agriculture and Agroecology by using new/

innovative ways to facilitate searching and to minimize the segmentation of knowledge due to lingual barriers through

the introduction of automated multilingual services, supported by a quality-controlled collaborative and

interactive approach while developing a sustainable, low-cost and re-usable solution to the problem of multilinguality

across Europe and the whole globe.”
