CfP: UK-Ireland Digital Humanities Association launches Community Interest Groups

17 Feb 2023 - 00:00

The Association is announcing a Call for Proposals for Community Interest Groups (CIGs) - community-driven groups which are organised around a specific research interest, an existing community of practice, or a salient issue within the digital humanities community.

These groups will serve as one of the primary vehicles for community building within the Association. They will help the Association become more inclusive, collaborative, and sustainable by providing spaces that respond to community needs.

CIGs are meant to be flexible, so that CIGs can emerge, transform and disband as priorities change within the field. CIGs will receive support from the Association, including use of the Association’s social media channels, a place on the Association’s website, the opportunity to participate in Association events, regular chances to feedback on issues related to the CIG’s area of interest, and formal opportunities to collaborate with other CIGs and external organisations.

For information about the proposal process, please see the instructions here: https://digitalhumanities-uk-ie.org/resources/cig_cfp/

Proposals can be submitted to uk-ie.digitalhumanities@sas.ac.uk by 5:00 PM GMT on Friday, 17 February 2023. If you have any questions about the process, please email uk-ie.digitalhumanities@sas.ac.uk.
