Digital Humanities Initiative

The CUNY Digital Humanities Initiative (CUNY DHI), launched in Fall 2010, aims to build connections and community among those at CUNY who are applying digital technologies to scholarship and pedagogy in the humanities. All are welcome: faculty, students, and technologists, experienced practitioners and beginning DHers, enthusiasts and skeptics.

We meet regularly on- and offline to explore key topics in the Digital Humanities, and share our work, questions, and concerns. See our blog for more information on upcoming events (it’s also where we present our group’s work to a wider audience). Help edit the CUNY Digital Humanities Resource Guide, our first group project. And, of course, join the conversation on the Forum.

    University of Houston

    Recovering the US Hispanic Heritage Program / US Latino Digital Humanities
    (USLDH)

    Call for Proposals

    GRANTS-IN-AID funded by The Mellon Foundation

    The University of Houston US Latino Digital Humanities (USLDH) program is a
    digital scholarship/research undertaking to provide training and research
    on US Latino recovered materials. Proposals must draw from recovered
    primary and derivative sources produced by Latinas/os in what is now the
    United States, dating from the Colonial Period to 1980 (such as Recovering
    the US Hispanic Literary Heritage collections, other repositories and/or
    the community).

    The Grants-in-Aid program is designed to provide a stipend to scholars for
    research and development of digital scholarship in the form of a digital
    publication and/or a digital project. The grant covers any expense
    connected with research that will advance a project to the next stage or to
    a successful conclusion. Grantees are expected to present as part of the
    2024 cohort virtual panel and produce a public-facing digital deliverable
    by December 2024.

    Scholars will have the opportunity to publish their digital scholarship on
