DH in the Time of Virus

Part of a series of digital initiatives across the world to battle academic isolation and to facilitate and support community building and osmosis in DH research and education, this event can be followed on Twitter using #DHgoesVIRAL.

@EuropeanaResearch will be presenting through a series of tweets between 13:00 and 13:15 (CEST)

“DH in the Time of Virus” is a largely experimental endeavour, inspired by the Public Archaeology Twitter Conference held entirely on Twitter in 2019. This event expands this idea and focuses on the subject of Digital Humanities in these uncertain times.

To this end, the topics of the Twitter Conference are the following:

Distance education / e-Education
Remote research / e-Research
Defeating isolation: digital tools, methods and platforms
Digital History / Philology / Archaeology of Disease and Epidemic
Medical / Health Digital Humanities.

You can take part by following the hashtag #DHgoesVIRAL.
