%X In this paper, we launch a new Universal Dependencies
treebank for an endangered language from Amazonia: Kakataibo, a Panoan
language spoken in Peru. We first discuss the collaborative methodology
implemented, which proved effective to create a treebank in the context
of a Computational Linguistic course for undergraduates. Then, we
describe the general details of the treebank and the language-specific
considerations implemented for the proposed annotation. We finally
conduct some experiments on part-of-speech tagging and syntactic
dependency parsing. We focus on monolingual and transfer learning
settings, where we study the impact of a Shipibo-Konibo treebank,
another Panoan language resource
