The MultilingualWeb initiative is concerned with standards and best practices that support the creation, localization and use of multilingual web-based information. Through W3C workshops open to the public and various communication channels, it spreads information about what standards and best practices currently exist, and what gaps need to be filled.

The MultilingualWeb-LT Working Group is defining meta-data for web content (mainly HTML5) and "deep Web" content to facilitate interaction between multilingual technologies and localization processes, and will demonstrate interoperable implementations.
