Hi there,  
I was searching for code references, blogs and any sort of resources that can help me in fine-tuning XLS-R on multiple languages all at once using huggingface.  
All help is highly appreciated

We don’t have much content for this at the moment sadly! It does sound like a very cool project though. I think the closest thing that I can think of that might help is this paper:  
[[2109.11680] Simple and Effective Zero-shot Cross-lingual Phoneme Recognition](https://arxiv.org/abs/2109.11680) (we have 2 of the models merged to the Hub)
