Hi Everyone,

Travel grants are available to subsidize the cost of attendance at DHSI-East for student participants (undergraduate and graduate); BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, People of Colour) participants; and under-employed participants (those in precarious positions and/or underwaged positions). These travel grants are made possible by SSHRC, the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada. Travel grant applications are due by 15 March 2025.

For the first time ever, we will be offering concurrent workshops and an Aligned Event on Gaelic Song (9-10 May)! DHSI-East 2025 will also feature a keynote by Dr. Stacey Allison-Cassin on “Reflections on Ethics and Justice in Metadata in the Age of AI.”

Choose one of two concurrent workshop options:

Digital Sustainability and Preservation in Digital Archives Projects led by Dr. Constance Crompton and Meghan Landry
Introduction to Databases for Humanist Data led by Dr. Jon Bath
