Helsinki Di­gital Hu­man­it­ies Hack­a­thon #DH­H26

2026年3月18日 23:02

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-EUHIIT, 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.

For information on what the hackathon was like in previous years, see #DHH25#DHH24#DHH23,#DHH22#DHH21#DHH19#DHH18#DHH17#DHH16 and #DHH15.

Themes

This year, the hackathon groups are organised around the following five themes:

  • Parliaments Beyond Borders: Exploring the Role of Foreign Nations in National Policy Debates
  • Crimes and Punishments: “True Crime” in Britain during the 19th century
  • The Language of Profits: A Multi-Disciplinary Exploration of Corporate and Legal Rhetoric
  • Large-Scale Patterns of Knowledge Production Through the Lens of 200 Million Books Across 600 Years
  • Decoding the System of Finnic Oral Poetry

See further information on the #DHH26 themes.

Call for Proposals for DARIAH Signature Project 2026

2026年3月17日 16:54

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. The successful project should deliver clear value to the arts and humanities and address a current need for the research community across Europe. A no less important goal is to stimulate substantial collaboration across DARIAH member states. 

Purpose and Scope

Projects may develop new services from scratch, or extend and/or consolidate existing community services, provided the outputs become part of DARIAH’s core offering. Signature Project funding cannot, however, be used merely for rebranding an existing service without delivering new capabilities.

To ensure long-term sustainability, applicants must define their proposed technology stack, which must align with DARIAH’s recommended technologies (see Technical Requirements below). The DARIAH CTO team will advise and support the project during development, with a focus on interoperability and production-grade deployment.

Types of outputs we seek

  • New or consolidated research tools that have a demonstrated need in a DARIAH community or communities 
  • Data services or platforms supporting curated or computational workflows that have visibility within a specific discipline or across multiple disciplines and/or across national nodes
  • Interoperability and integration services that connect tools, datasets, and/or communities
  • A tool, service, or platform  that is relevant to a broad European and potentially global community

Technical Requirements

Signature Projects are expected to demonstrate:

  • Use of well-established technologies such as Python, TypeScript, React, relational databases (e.g. PostgreSQL), and triplestores (e.g. QLever), or comparable mature alternatives with strong community support.
  • Support for established data formats, vocabularies, and conceptual models for both input and output, with particular attention to Linked Open Data (LOD) principles and the use of RDF, where appropriate.
  • Well-defined programmatic access through stable, documented APIs, using REST and/or GraphQL, to enable reuse by other services, workflows, and research infrastructures.
  • Federated identity and access management through integration with Authentication and Authorisation (AAI) in line with DARIAH and EOSC practices.
  • Replicable and portable deployment workflows based on containerisation technologies (e.g. Docker) that allow the service to be reliably installed, operated, and scaled across different cloud or institutional environments.

Who Can Apply

The call is open to national consortium partners in DARIAH Member Countries. Applications should be collaborative and include at least three DARIAH national consortium partners from three DARIAH member countries. The consortium should include a range of institutions which each contribute to the development of the service.

We explicitly encourage applicants to consider a gender balanced constitution of their team.

Selection Criteria

  • Relevance and strategic alignment with DARIAH’s mission
  • Innovation and potential impact on research practices in the arts and humanities
  • Technical and conceptual soundness of the proposed service
  • Openness, interoperability and sustainability of outputs
  • Team composition and feasibility of work plan and budget

Funding and Duration

  • Funding amount: 125,000€ (lump sum) contribution from DARIAH
  • Full project costs should amount to between 150,000€ – 200,000€ including an in-kind contribution 
  • Project duration: 24 months
  • Disbursement: 50% at startupon signature of a grant agreement between DARIAH and the Lead Institution, 30% upon successful mid-term report and review, 20% upon successful completion

How to Apply

Applicants must submit their application by 15 July 2026.

There is an option to submit a one-page summary proposal for feedback by 5 June. The one-page proposal can be sent to funding@dariah.eu.

Inquiries about the scheme can be made to funding@dariah.eu.

New ILS Labs take shape at Drift 10

作者masch001
2026年3月16日 18:44

Construction of the brand-new research facilities for the ILS Labs at Drift 10 is now in full swing. Renovations are progressing rapidly and the soundproof booths that will house the labs are currently being installed. The technical installation of the first labs is expected to start in April.

The labs of the Institute for Language Sciences (ILS) are used to study language development in babies and language processing and production in adults. Much of this research involves the use of sound stimuli, which makes soundproof laboratories essential.

Several parts of Drift 10 are currently being renovated and upgraded to accommodate the new facilities. The floors of both the ground floor and first floor are being fortified to support the booths and the ventilation system is being expanded. Once completed, the basement, ground floor, and first floor will house two biolabs, two eye-tracking labs, three phonetics/general-purpose labs, an interaction lab, and a head-turn-preference lab.

Although the move is only a short distance – from Janskerkhof 13 to Drift 10 – it is a major logistical project. To ensure that ongoing research can continue with minimal disruption, the labs will be relocated one at a time. Moving each lab will take several weeks, and the full relocation is expected to be completed by the end of 2026 or beginning of 2027.

DARIAH is seeking a new member for the DARIAH Joint Research Committee

2026年3月12日 21:38

DARIAH ERIC is calling for applications to join the DARIAH Joint Research Committee (JRC) as a member. The JRC organises the integration of DARIAH’s technical developments and innovation activities, acting as a link between DARIAH Working Groups and executive/governing bodies. While supporting the organisation of the DARIAH Annual Event, the JRC members are also involved in the development of DARIAH policies and/or strategies relevant to their expertise. In this context, we look for applicants with expertise in the area of Communities, as expressed in the DARIAH Strategic Pillar 4 (we support communities in expanding their capabilities to respond effectively to new and emerging requirements in their research environments, see DARIAH Strategic Plan for details).

DARIAH’s Joint Research Committee (JRC):

  • is one of the two operational bodies of DARIAH ERIC. It contributes to the alignment and strategic vision of DARIAH’s scientific and technical activities across the DARIAH network and advises the Board of Directors on these matters.  
  • is composed of between six and ten experts from DARIAH Member or Observer countries. Their expertise represents scientific and/or technical fields relevant for DARIAH.

Members of the JRC engage in strategic tasks, are dedicated to community engagement, and hold operational responsibilities. More concretely, a JRC member:

  • Provides  strategic advice to the Board οf Directors (BoD) throughout the year, including participation in the annual DARIAH Strategy  Days. 
  • Bridges community technical infrastructure developments and strategic initiatives. 
  • Contributes to DARIAH white papers and strategic task forces.
  • Works closely together with the DARIAH Working Groups; monitors their activities,  sanctions new ones, and represents them in the broader DARIAH governance.
  • Acts as core of the Programme Committee of the DARIAH Annual Event.
  • Acts as Review Board for other DARIAH calls (e.g., Working group funding call).

The JRC meets about every 6 weeks, and at least once in a year face to face. 

Being a JRC member is an excellent way to make your personal expertise available for the wider network of research infrastructures in the humanities and to shape their future. It is also an opportunity to gain experiences in research management at a European level. We expect from the new JRC member expertise in the area she/he applies for, next to innovative ideas on the directions the DARIAH community should go to and how.

Please also add your CV to this application and send it as an email to jrc@dariah.eu by May 18, 2026.

Conditions of the position

We solicit applications from experts from DARIAH Partner Institutions* in DARIAH Member and Observer countries. 

JRC members are selected and appointed by the BoD as individuals based on their expertise and disciplinary focus. No formal legal framework between DARIAH and the DARIAH Partner Institution employing the JRC member is foreseen. However, in the case a member requires formal institutional recognition to secure their time dedicated to the JRC, DARIAH may provide a letter of appointment or a bilateral agreement tailored to the specific needs of the JRC member, if needed.

Please note that this appointment is not a paid position, but that DARIAH covers occasional travel expenses (e.g., to the Strategic Days and the Annual Event). The time and commitment is eligible as an official contribution of your country to DARIAH (so-called ‘in-kind’ contributions). Please contact your DARIAH National Coordinator (see list) while preparing your application.

The appointment is usually for 3 years and can be prolonged for one additional term. 

*According to Article 11 of the DARIAH Statutes, DARIAH Partner Institutions are institutions, either public or private, which serve a public mission, actively contribute to DARIAH, and are situated in a DARIAH Member or Observer country and are either part of the official National Consortium or approved by the National Coordinator.

Application and Selection Procedure

The decision process on this position is as follows: The JRC reviews the applications within four weeks and may reach out to the corresponding National Coordinator. The recommendation of the JRC will be shared with the BoD, who approves and appoints the new JRC member. 

If you are interested, please send an application to jrc@dariah.eu by May 18, 2026.

Please contact jrc@dariah.eu if you have further questions.

Spotlight on Saints, Scrolls, XML: Rediscovering Bulgaria’s Church Mural Texts

2026年3月5日 16:26

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.

Figures of monks holding scrolls with Greek ascetic maxims from the St. George Rotunda church (XI-XII c., Sofia, Bulgaria), image from Bakalova and Vasilev 2018: 177.

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.

Slovakia joins DARIAH as full member

2026年3月4日 19:59

Following years of participation in DARIAH with Cooperating Partnerships, Slovakia joined DARIAH ERIC as a full member in February 2026.

“The Board of Directors warmly welcomes Slovakia as a full member of DARIAH ERIC” said Dr. Agiatis Benardou, President of the DARIAH Board of Directors. “This milestone reflects years of dedication from the Slovak consortium and strong national support. DARIAH-SK brings valuable expertise in digital research collections, linguistic resources, and Open Science, strengthening both Central European cooperation and the wider DARIAH network. We look forward to close collaboration and to Slovakia’s active contribution to the European Research Area.”

The DARIAH-SK infrastructure

The DARIAH-SK consortium is led by the Institute of Ethnology and Social Anthropology, Slovak Academy of Sciences and is supported by the Ministry of Education, Research, Development and Youth of the Slovak Republic. 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.
