in natural language processing. As large language models (LLMs) become foundational to recent NLP applications, addressing how these systems represent and affect different genders, alongside intersecting demographic axes such as race, ethnicity, nationality,
religion, and ability, remains a critical challenge for the AI community. While foundational progress has been made in algorithmic debiasing and balanced data collection, recent large-scale evaluations reveal that state-of-the-art models continue to exhibit
persistent stereotypes and confidence disparities across intersectional identities (Siddique et al., 2024; Savoldi et al., 2024). Our workshop serves as a multidisciplinary bridge, enabling researchers to define shared standards for tasks and metrics that
ensure technical advancements are deeply rooted in the social and ethical realities of systemic harm (Dai et al., 2024).</span></p>
