Second call for papers DHASA Conference 2024 https://dh2023.digitalhumanities.org.za/ <https://dh2023.digitalhumanities.org.za/> Theme: "Digital Humanities for Inclusion" The Digital Humanities Association of Southern Africa (DHASA) is pleased to announce its fourth conference, focusing on the theme "Digital Humanities for Inclusion." In a region where the field of Digital Humanities is still relatively underdeveloped, this conference aims to address this gap and foster growth and collaboration in the field. The conference offers an opportunity for researchers interested in showcasing their work in the broad field of Digital Humanities to come together. By doing so, the conference provides a comprehensive overview of the current state-of-the-art in Digital Humanities, particularly within the Southern Africa region. As such, we welcome submissions related to Digital Humanities research conducted by individuals from Southern Africa or research focused on the geographical area of Southern Africa. Furthermore, the conference serves as a platform for information sharing and networking among researchers passionate about Digital Humanities. By bringing together experts working on Digital Humanities in Southern Africa or with a focus on Southern Africa, we aim to promote collaboration and facilitate further research in this dynamic field. In addition to the main conference, affiliated workshops and tutorials will be organized, providing researchers with valuable insights into novel technologies and tools. These supplementary events are designed for researchers interested in specific aspects of Digital Humanities or seeking practical information to enter or advance their knowledge in the field. The DHASA conference welcomes interdisciplinary contributions from researchers in various domains of Digital Humanities, including, but not limited to, language, literature, visual art, performance and theatre studies, media studies, music, history, sociology, psychology, language technologies, library studies, philosophy, methodologies, software and computation, and more. Our goal is to cultivate an inclusive scientific community of practice within Digital Humanities. Suggested topics include the following: * Digital archives and the preservation of marginalized voices; * Intersectionality and the digital humanities: exploring the intersections of race, gender, sexuality, and class in digital research and activism; * Activism and social change through digital media: how digital humanities tools and methodologies can be used to promote inclusion; * Engaging marginalized communities in the creation and use of digital tools and resources; * Exploring the role of digital humanities in decolonizing knowledge and promoting indigenous perspectives; * The ethics of data collection and analysis in digital humanities research related; * The role of digital humanities in promoting inclusive and equitable pedagogy; * Digital humanities and inclusion in the context of global perspectives and international collaborations; * Critical approaches to digital humanities and inclusion: examining the limitations and possibilities of digital tools and methodologies in promoting inclusion; and * Collaborative digital humanities projects with non-profit organizations, community groups, and cultural institutions; * Any other digital humanities-related topic that serves the Southern African community.

Juli 2023 um 11:49 An: "multilingual-dh(a)lists.stanford.edu" <multilingual-dh(a)lists.stanford.edu> Betreff: [multilingual-dh] CfP Data and Workflows for Multilingual DH Dear Multilingual DHMembers! New CfP - Contributions solicited for a Special Collection on “Data and Workflows for Multilingual DH” in the Journal of Open Humanities Data (JOHD) led by guest editor Lorella Viola. Register your interest by 14 July 2023 by completing this form. Call for Papers Data and Workflows for Multilingual Digital Humanities Technology has revolutionised the way humanities researchers engage with and understand cultural artefacts, literature, texts, and historical documents (Antonijević 2020). While digital humanities (DH) scholars have gained access to vast amounts of data, this abundance and complexity present unique challenges such as the critical issue of effective data management and the establishment of efficient workflows (Peukert 2017). Multilingualism, for instance, poses a significant hurdle to DH scholars seeking to analyse and interpret texts in different languages. Despite the growing emergence of multilingual tools, computational resources available for languages other than English continue to remain scarce. Such Anglophone-centricity acts as a barrier to researchers, teachers and curators who work on, or teach with, materials in languages other than English (Viola and Spence 2023). This includes academia, libraries, museums and heritage and cultural institutions more widely. Indeed, the comparative lack of computational resources in languages other than English often dictates which tasks can be performed, with which tools and through which platforms (Viola 2023). Data acquisition, curation, and integration strategies become therefore even more critical to ensure the seamless incorporation of multilingual resources into research projects. This involves sourcing and digitising materials, ensuring data quality and consistency, and developing appropriate metadata standards and ontologies. As DH researchers strive to expand their horizons by studying texts, artefacts, and cultural phenomena across various languages, it becomes crucial to create comprehensive and reliable digital documentations that serve as valuable resources for future studies. Furthermore, the management of multilingual data requires sophisticated tools and techniques for cross-lingual information retrieval and extraction. For example, machine translation and natural language processing play pivotal roles in enabling researchers to navigate and analyse texts in different languages; at the same time, workflows in multilingual digital scholarship and in DH more widely encompass the processes, methodologies, and tools employed to conduct research and analyse data. An efficient workflow ensures that research tasks are executed seamlessly, fostering reproducibility, collaboration, and scalability. Especially in the case of DH projects that often involve interdisciplinary teams, well-defined workflows facilitate effective communication and coordination among team members whereas clear documentation of workflow steps allows for the replication of experiments and analyses, fostering transparency and enabling the validation of research findings. This special collection in the Journal of Open Humanities Data aims to bring together cutting-edge research and advancements in the field of multilingual DH, focusing specifically on data management and workflow methodologies to explore innovative data and workflow strategies that address the challenges posed by multilingual datasets. We invite researchers, practitioners, and scholars to submit short data papers or full length research papers (see description below) addressing the intersection of data and workflows in multilingual DH. We welcome contributions that explore the following and related themes: Workflows for multilingual data acquisition, curation, and integration Information retrieval and extraction workflows for multilingual DH Machine translation and natural language processing data and workflows for multilingual DH Ontologies and metadata standards for multilingual resources Visualisation workflows for multilingual data exploration Collaborative and crowdsourcing approaches for multilingual DH projects Ethical considerations and challenges in multilingual DH research Case studies showcasing multilingual DH projects, data, and/or workflows Workflows for tools and frameworks for multilingual data processing and analysis Sustainable data and workflows for multilingual DH **Important Dates:** - Paper Submission Deadline: 15 October 2023 - First Round of Reviews: 15 November 2023 - Revised Manuscript Submission: 29 November 2023 - Final Notification of Acceptance: 6 December 2023 Read the full call for paper including submission guidelines here https://openhumanitiesdata.metajnl.com/collections/data-and-workflows We look forward to receiving your contributions and encourage you to forward this opportunity to colleagues who may be interested.
