Written by Marianne Ping Huang, Associate Professor, School of Communication and Culture – Comparative Literature, Aarhus University and Monika Barget, Assistant Professor in the History Department, Maastricht University and co-chairs of the #dariahTeach Working Group (WG), this article presents the origins of the #dariahTeach WG, its development since its launch in 2017 and its current plans for expansion.
#dariahTeach has been a DARIAH WG since 2017 with a focus on the #dariahTeach project and platform, which hosts some 30 Open Educational Resources. The guiding principle behind the #dariahTeach platform is to create reusable teaching materials that could easily be integrated into university courses, or could be used by ‘lone learners’, meaning individuals who do not have access to digital humanities expertise. #dariahTeach has since diversified its content beyond the technical to provide courses in areas such as the integration of social justice into digital scholarship and taking a design thinking approach to project design.
The #dariahTeach WG is now expanding its focus beyond the #dariahTeach platform to embrace the wide range of teaching being undertaken by the DARIAH community, from traditional face-to-face teaching, to the development of open educational resources, to workshops, summer schools, and hackathons. The chairs are inviting anyone interested to join them in Rome for the WG meeting organised during the DARIAH Annual Event 2026 to discuss topics such as Research software and coding skills, Accessibility and inclusivity of DH teaching beyond higher education, Artificial intelligence as an opportunity and challenge in DH teaching.

This article is part of DARIAH’s latest outreach campaign, DARIAH Spotlight, which makes research within the DARIAH network more visible. This monthly series will showcase digital scholarship in the humanities, from both DARIAH Working Groups and DH projects within the DARIAH network. Follow this campaign for more Spotlight articles.
The ECHOLOT consortium – “European Cultural Heritage Optimised Linked Open Tools” – is proud to announce the launch of this innovative project, funded by the European Research Executive Agency (REA) under the powers delegated by the European Commission under the Horizon Europe Research and Innovation programme.
ECHOLOT revolutionizes the provision and reuse of high-quality, interoperable Cultural Heritage data with AI-powered enrichment, integrating seamlessly in the European Collaborative Cloud for Cultural Heritage (ECCCH) and empowering the research and creative sectors. Bringing together major initiatives, such as Europeana and the Wikimedia movement, alongside key EU-infrastructure projects, including ECHOES, EOSC, and the Data Space for Cultural Heritage (DS4CH), ECHOLOT contributes innovative, easy-to-use and accessible technical solutions and collaboration models.
The activities and goals of ECHOLOT are based on four main pillars:
Integration and interoperability: Development of the software and interoperability models to be seamlessly integrated as a service in the Cultural Heritage Cloud infrastructure.
Workflows & Enrichment: Development of hybrid curation workflows based on AI-enhanced processing and human input.
Innovation & Sustainability: Development of innovative collaboration and business models driving the necessary long-term social and organisational changes.
Collaboration & Communities: Validation and engagement with diverse CHIs across Europe through a series of five distinct case studies, in addition to capacity building activities and training modules.
Five case studies to test and validate ECHOLOT’s technical system and collaboration model
ECHOLOT is validated through five real-world case studies, each of which addresses a different cultural heritage-related challenge and demonstrates the project’s impact across the sector.
1. Basque Cultural Heritage Data: Establishing the first comprehensive collection of entity identifiers relevant in Basque cultural heritage and beyond. Enabling the creation, provision and reuse of high-quality, semantically rich, interoperable cultural data
2. European Literary Bibliography: Transformation and enrichment of multilingual European literary bibliographic data through the use of relevant Linked Open Data resources.
3. Connecting Media Art Collections: Collaborative harmonisation and enrichment of diverse media art collections, connecting previously dispersed artworks and artists.
4. Flemish Fine Arts and Performing Arts Collections: Making the publication of museum data to Wikimedia Commons and Europeana more efficient through a single, integrated workflow, with a particular focus on the Flemish context.
5. Publishing and Round-Tripping GLAM data: Wikimedia Sweden, together with several Swedish GLAM partners, will test the enrichment and multi-output publishing modules of ECHOLOT, especially focusing on workflows for reintegrating (round-tripping) enriched data back into the source databases.
Although the ECHOLOT consortium has only been operational for three months, it has already held two meetings, demonstrating its enthusiasm for shaping the future of cultural heritage data in Europe. The kick-off meeting, which took place online in January, provided an opportunity to review all the work packages and draw up the project’s roadmap for its 36-month duration. The consortium’s second meeting was held in person in Bilbao, Spain, in early March. In addition to addressing all outstanding issues to enable effective work to begin, the meeting was conceived as a requirements gathering workshop co-organised and hosted by the University of the Basque Country. Focusing on gathering input from the case study third-party participants, the workshop included user-centered design activities such as co-designing user personas, user stories and journey maps.
ECHOLOT is a multidisciplinary project bringing together 15 partners from 12 countries who are experts in arts and culture, media studies, information and library science, knowledge engineering, computer science, design and prototyping, management and communication.
DARIAH participates in the project together with the Austrian Academy of Sciences (OEAW). While OEAW will contribute to the requirements engineering and system design, DARIAH will oversee the evaluation phase ahead of the final release of the ECHOLOT software.

Join us for the Helsinki Digital Humanities Hackathon 2026—an opportunity to collaborate and innovate in an interdisciplinary setting. The application period is open (until 14 April 2026) – apply now to be part of this year’s cohort.
People talk about hackathons, but there is only one Helsinki Digital Humanities Hackathon. #DHH26 is the 11th iteration of our international summer school (aimed primarily at master’s students and beyond), which brings together diverse participants from Finland and across Europe.
In the Helsinki Digital Humanities Hackathon, you will experience an interdisciplinary research project from start to finish within the span of 10 days. For researchers and students from computer science and data science, the hackathon gives the opportunity to test their abstract knowledge against complex real-life problems. For people from the humanities and social sciences, it shows what is possible to achieve with such collaboration. For everyone, the hackathon gives the experience of intensely working with people from different backgrounds as part of an interdisciplinary team, as, during the hackathon, each group develops a digital humanities research project from start to finish. Working together, they formulate research questions with respect to particular data sets, develop and apply methods and tools to address them, and present the work at the end of the hackathon.
Participation in #DHH26 is free for all accepted participants. This year, we also expect to sponsor a limited number of participants from outside Finland with flights and accommodation (decisions on this to be made after the application period).
The event is organised by FIN-CLARIAH—particularly its DARIAH-FI component—in collaboration with HELDIG and the Department of Digital Humanities at the Faculty of Humanities, University of Helsinki, as well as Aalto University. We are supported by CLARIN-EU, HIIT, the Helsinki Centre for Intellectual History, and Marie Curie Training Networks CASCADE & MECANO. 5 ECTS credits may be gained from participating in the hackathon for students, and it also functions as a staff training event for leadership and collaboration across disciplinary borders.
17.3.2026 This year’s themes are unveiled, and the application period starts 14.4.2026 Application period ends 27.4.2026 Registration period ends for #DHH26 for accepted participants 4.5. & 11.5.2026 Two #DHH26 pre-hackathon online preparatory sessions 20.–29.5.2026 #DHH26 hackathon in Helsinki
Please note that we can only accept participants who are able to commit to the full week of intensive work (not just a couple of hours here and there), as well as the preparatory sessions. Thus, if you know that you have other commitments during the hackathon, please consider applying next time when you can make a full commitment.
The hackathon will take place between 20.–29.5.2026. The participants are expected to commit to the hackathon for the whole period; work takes place mainly between 10 AM and 5 PM on weekdays (the weekend is free!). In addition, there are two online pre-sessions on Mondays 4.5. and 11.5., between 2 – 4 PM UTC+03:00 for orientation, group formation and preparation for the intensive hackathon period. The participants are expected to attend also these pre-sessions.
DARIAH is delighted to announce the first call for a Signature Project with the goal of developing an innovative and sustainable core service that strengthens and expands DARIAH’s infrastructure.

DARIAH is delighted to publish the latest Spotlight article Saints, Scrolls, XML: Rediscovering Bulgaria’s Church Mural Texts. This article is part of the DARIAH Spotlight campaign, a monthly series that focuses on digital scholarship within the DARIAH network.
Written by Dimitar Iliev, Assistant Professor in Ancient Greek and Latin at the Department of Classics of the “St. Kliment Ohridski” University of Sofia, Bulgaria, National Coordinator for Bulgaria in DARIAH-EU and Co-coordinator of the South-East European DARIAH Regional Hub, this article presents the research and technical implementation of the DH project ORASIS which aims to thorough document, publish (in many cases, for the first time in English), and study the (post-)Byzantine inscriptions accompanying church murals in today’s Bulgaria.
This project allowed the first application of an EpiDoc-compliant XML template and front-end to post-Byzantine religious art, as EpiDoc is typically used for monuments of other types and periods. So far, around 30 inscriptions have been digitised, out of the initial set of 230, revealing curious cases of text reuse and reinterpretation, reflecting the shifting boundaries of complex identities so characteristic of South-East Europe during the Ottoman period. The inherent interactivity of digital publication will facilitate the study of the different connections between text and image patterns, many of which are far from obvious, and will thus contribute to our better understanding of the past.

It is a distributed research infrastructure composed of a network of geographically dispersed and coordinated domestic institutions. These institutions offer a wide range of digital and analog services to the scientific community and the general public.
The consortium consists of the following partners:
“It’s been a long journey to get Slovakia into DARIAH ERIC, and we’re thrilled to finally be here,” said Andrej Gogora, National Coordinator of DARIAH-SK. “A huge thanks goes to the Slovak Ministry of Education and the entire DARIAH-EU team for backing this vision. Now that the door is open, my focus shifts to ensuring our community takes full advantage of it. We are ready to turn this membership into real-world collaborations and make a meaningful contribution to the European research landscape.”
National priorities
The strengths of DARIAH-SK are defined by the specific expertise of its partners, with a focus on areas such as thematic research collections, open-source repository systems for presenting the tangible and intangible cultural heritage, and corpus databases and other linguistic resources. Other significant strengths include the popularization of Open Science Policy and the ethical evaluation of modern technologies. The consortium’s activities also leverage significant human capital, with dozens of researchers, technical staff, and students engaged in research, digitization, and documentation.
“Slovakia’s membership in DARIAH ERIC represents a significant milestone for our research and innovation ecosystem”, said Simona Foltinová, National representative of DARIAH ERIC on behalf of the Ministry of Education, Research, Development and Youth. “Our ministry views this step as a strategic investment in strengthening international cooperation, expanding access to advanced digital research infrastructures and supporting the active participation of Slovak institutions within the European Research Area.”
As a nascent platform, DARIAH-SK is currently in a preparatory phase, focusing on community coordination, strategic development, and securing financial resources to fulfill its mid-term priorities. DARIAH-SK is an open platform, willing to accept new thematically and professionally relevant domestic partners.
By joining DARIAH ERIC, DARIAH-SK aims to strengthen its collaboration, particularly with partners from Central Europe and the surrounding regions and to revitalize the activities of the DARIAH Central European Hub, with the participation of Czech (LINDAT/CLARIAH-CZ), Austrian (CLARIAH-AT), Polish (DARIAH-PL), and Hungarian (Eötvös Loránd University) DH initiatives.
Furthermore, DARIAH-SK is interested in establishing closer collaborations with selected university departments in Slovakia to accelerate the creation and implementation of DH subjects in domestic higher education programs. The expertise of DARIAH-EU, notably on the Training and Education strategic pillar, will provide significant support for this endeavor.

Title: “Can this be done?” New research tools for studying human interaction
Speakers: Stefan Lindgren & Carolina Larsson, Lund University
This presentation aims to demonstrate a new workflow for using motion capture to study human movement and interaction. The workflow arose from a collaboration with Riksteatern Crea, a theatre group in Sweden that creates stage productions in sign language designed for deaf, hard-of-hearing, and hearing audiences alike. They asked whether it is possible to transfer the complex movements of a sign-language performer to a digital avatar that could be projected onto a stage and interact in real time with both the audience and live actors. The answer was yes. Here we outline the development of a simplified, more efficient workflow for researchers studying human interaction through body movement and gesture using motion capture devices of different kinds and a free game developing software called Unreal Engine.

Games create worlds made of many different elements, but also of rules, systems and structures for how we act in them. So how can we make sense of them? Mytholudics: Games and Myth lays out an approach to understanding games using theories from myth and folklore. Myth is understood not as an object or a kind of story, but as a way of expressing meaning, a way in which we produce a model for understanding the world and things in it. This talk lays out this approach and how it can help you analyse and conceptualise gameworlds. The framework helps to see games and their worlds in the whole. Stories, gameplay, systems, rules, spatial configurations and art styles can all be considered together as contributing to the meaning of the game.

Title:Feminist Digital Humanities: Intersections in Practice
Speakers: Monika Barget (University of Maastricht), Jenny Bergenmar (University of Gothenburg), & Susan Schreibman (University of Maastricht)
In April 2025 Feminist Digital Humanities: Intersections in Practice was published by The University of Illinois Press. It is an edited collection (which is available open access and can be downloaded here) divided into three main sections: Readings, Infrastructures and Pedagogies. The thread that runs through this collection is a theorisation of feminist DH practice as sites of possibility for exploring, exposing, and revaluing marginalized forms of knowledge production through new modes and processes of meaning making. Each chapter also reflects on what it means to be a feminist and a technologist through definitions of feminisms that are brought into conversation with DH scholarship. Feminist DH practices are presented as sites of possibility for exploring, exposing, and revaluing marginalized forms of knowledge production by enacting new modes and processes of meaning making. An overriding focus of the collection is to demonstrate how feminist lenses attuned to issues of intersectionality and gender can uncover structural inequities and present opportunities for social and intellectual change.
This talk will have a three-part focus. The first part will reflect on the collection as a whole, and how it intersects with current feminist thought and DH practice. The second part will explore the Readings section through the chapter Feminist DH: A Historical Perspective Excavating the Lives of Women of the Past by Monika Barget and Susan Schreibman which explores how the Irish digital humanities project Letters 1916–1923 adopted a feminist approach to surface marginalized women’s voices in a heterogeneous historical collection of letters dominated by male voices. The third part will focus on Jenny Bergenmar’s co-authored chapter Infrastructures for Diversity: Feminist and Queer Interventions in Nordic Digital Humanities from the Infrastructures Section, which explores how DH infrastructures in institutional frameworks can make space for feminist, queer, and activist perspectives, methods, and collaborations.

The Digital Research Infrastructure for the Arts and Humanities (DARIAH-EU) is proud to announce it has signed a Cooperating Partnership agreement with Vilnius University in Vilnius, Lithuania. This strategic partnership positions Lithuania’s leading academic institution as a central hub for digital innovation, bridging advanced technology with the study of culture, communication, and society in the Baltic region. The Lithuanian Literature and Folklore Institute was also accepted as a DARIAH Cooperating Partner alongside Vilnius University.
A Strategic Leap for Research Networking
DARIAH is a European Research Infrastructure Consortium (ERIC) whose mission is to empower research communities with digital methods to create, connect, and share knowledge about culture and society. As a Cooperating Partner, VU joins a network of 24 member countries and numerous partner institutions, filling a critical geographical gap in the European digital research map between Poland and Latvia and strengthening the integration of Baltic research into the continental landscape.
The Vice-Rector of Vilnius University, Dr Artūras Vasiliauskas, commented: “This step reflects Vilnius University’s long-standing openness to international collaboration and its commitment to being an active, trusted partner in Europe’s research ecosystem. By joining DARIAH-EU, we are strengthening our ability to connect Lithuanian scholarship with global academic networks and to respond to societal challenges through innovative, technology-driven research.”
A Transdisciplinary Hub for Digital Innovation
The partnership is spearheaded by the Faculty of Communication, which acts as a unique transdisciplinary connector between technical ICT research and traditional inquiries in the human and social sciences. This ecosystem is defined by a diverse array of specialised research units that apply digital methods for pressing societal issues. The newly established Centre for Communication Influences and Propaganda Research at the Faculty of Communication utilises digital analysis of textual and media resources to investigate strategic narratives and disinformation, while the Connective Research Group has developed an innovative Social Media Archive using knowledge graphs and generative artificial intelligence to explore how the past is remembered and how Lithuanian history and heritage shape contemporary identities. These efforts are complemented by the Faculty’s Mobile Eye-Tracking Laboratory, which investigates reading behaviours and information consumption, and the 3D Digitisation and Digital Research Laboratory, which provides expertise in AI and 3D scanning for urban heritage preservation.
“This partnership recognises the breadth of expertise within our Faculty,” noted Prof. Renata Matkevičienė, the Dean of the Faculty of Communication. “To the European network, with the project activities, we bring significant methodological insights based on results of our previous research, together with innovative technical and technological resources from the mobile eye-tracking laboratory to our work on knowledge graphs and 3D digitisation. This collaboration will expand our already existing multidisciplinary collaboration network and provide our researchers and students with access to an exceptional community of experts, ensuring we remain at the forefront of the digital transformation.”
Leading the Agenda on Digital Practices
Supporting these research capabilities is the Vilnius University Library, a national leader in Open Science. By managing MIDAS, the National Open Access Research Data Archive, and digitising over 50,000 cultural heritage objects annually, the Library ensures robust preservation and access for Lithuania’s documentary heritage.
Associate Professor Ingrida Kelpšienė, Vice-Dean for Projects and Partnerships at the Faculty of Communication, explains: “I have witnessed firsthand the value of cross-border collaboration with DARIAH, having been involved in the network since its early stages and being part of the Digital Methods and Practices Observatory (DiMPO) working group. It is particularly meaningful to renew Lithuania’s engagement with this international research infrastructure, with our Faculty once again being an active part of the network. DARIAH membership is strategically significant for our academic community, as it strengthens international partnerships, leverages our regional expertise in digital research, and opens new opportunities for collaborative projects, research, and innovation across traditional and emerging fields of scholarship.”
“The Faculty of Communication is uniquely positioned to serve as the connector for this initiative”, adds Prof. Konstantinos (Costis) Dallas, the Scientific Coordinator for the partnership. “We look forward to collaborating fruitfully with the Lithuanian Literature and Folklore Institute to strengthen the bond between Lithuania and the European digital humanities research space. By combining our methodological leadership in digital practices with our new infrastructures for social media analysis and digital behaviour, we aim to drive the digital research agenda forward across the human and social sciences, not just for the University, but for the wider region.”
The President of the DARIAH-EU Board of Directors, Dr Agiatis Benardou, endorsed the agreement: “We are delighted to welcome Vilnius University to the DARIAH family. The Faculty of Communication has a distinguished history of contributions to the community. Formalising this partnership allows us to deepen our collaboration and leverage VU’s expertise and infrastructure to the benefit of the broader European research landscape.”
