The Workshop on Requirements Engineering 2018 is now in its twentieth-first
edition. This series of workshops on the topic started in 1998 as a meeting
of the Ibero-American requirements engineering community, but since its
second edition in Buenos Aires (1999) it has attracted attention from
researchers and practitioners from other parts of the world as well.

The WER format promotes discussion and knowledge exchange between academy
and industry members. This edition will also feature invited lectures from
practitioners, as well as video presentations related to the
state-of-the-practice in Requirements Engineering.
