Hybrid Participation
Given the continuing uncertainties around Covid-19, and to open the conference to a wider audience, we have decided to present the Fifth GHI Conference on Digital Humanities and Digital History, “Datafication in the Historical Humanities: Reconsidering Traditional Understandings of Sources and Data,” as a hybrid event taking place from June 2 to 4, 2022.
Remote participants will be able to listen to our two Keynotes on current perspectives in digital history, join our Workshops to discover new websites and software, and explore the newest research by digital historians in our Virtual Poster Session! The conference’s panel discussions will only be open to invited participants.
