Digital Humanities 2020
The theme of the conference is “carrefours/intersections,” a place where paths cross. The theme recalls the geographical and cultural heritage of Ottawa, a bilingual city in unceded Algonquin territory. Three specific sub-disciplinary interests will guide our use of the theme: First Nations, Native American, and Indigenous Studies; public digital humanities; and the open data movement.
First Nations, Native American, and Indigenous Studies is an interdisciplinary field exploring the history, culture, politics, issues, and contemporary experiences of indigenous peoples. As a constellation of humanities and social science disciplines, the conference should be guided by the following principles:
- be grounded in land, region, and community
- recognize the sovereign status of First Nations, Native American, and Indigenous Communities
- be polyvocal, recognizing that important community voices must be incorporated in the conference
- problematize language and hierarchical structures including being reciprocal with the community involved in the conference
- be tied to contemporary peoples and events including serving the needs of the community
- recognize indigenous data sovereignty as key to the continuing vitality of Native communities
- analyzes the historical and continued impacts of colonialism, postcolonialism, and hegemony
Public Digital Humanities reflects many of these same values:
- start with humans, not technologies or tools
- be continuously co-constructed
- encourage inclusion rather than exclusion; intellectualism rather than anti-intellectualism
- support a lack of hierarchies
- encourage kindness within critical engagement
- note the importance of working collectively, positively, and with generosity
- supports positive and fruitful partnerships with the public beyond the academy
The open data movement encourages us to:
- enable the dissemination of scholarship both in-process and in its final form
- share with one another
- assign attribution and credit fairly
- consider Open Access, Open Source, Open Scholarship, and Open Standards practices as it relates to digital projects and their research outputs
- encourage universal participation of all potential conference attendees
- consider economic accessibility of the conference
