From 14 to 18 July, at the Universidade NOVA de Lisboa, the Alliance of Digital Humanities Organizations (ADHO) organise their annual Digital Humanities conference.

Building access and accessibility, open science to all citizens

In 2002, the Budapest Open Access Declaration amplified the need to make research more widely available and free to anyone with internet access. Lately, Open Science or Open Scholarship have reframed concepts such as openness, access and accessibility from a technical and ethical perspective, taking into consideration data, infrastructure, and/or collaboration. National, international, or organisational manifestos, statements, declarations, principles, and policies related to scholarly objects, practices or methods are being formulated to improve and accelerate research through increased transparency, collaboration, and a more inclusive access to scientific knowledge of our societies.

By leveraging digital tools and methodologies, the digital humanities have been aiming at democratizing access to knowledge, fostering community engagement, and addressing contemporary societal needs and challenges in several meaningful ways.

Registration is now open, and the programme will be online soon.
