*** REMINDER: Submission deadline is 15 April 2022.* **
The Critical Digital Humanities Initiative (https://dhn.utoronto.ca/)
(CDHI) at the University of Toronto cordially invites submissions to our
2022 international conference, to take place *Friday, September 30 and
Saturday, October 1, 2022*.
This year’s Critical Digital Humanities International Conference
(https://dhn.utoronto.ca/conference/) foregrounds critical DH research,
praxis, and community partnerships. Critical DH is an intersectional field
that emphasizes questions of power, social justice, and critical theory in
making, analyzing, and using digital technologies. This is a version of
digital humanities that places anti-racist, de/anti/postcolonial, feminist,
and queer/trans/non-binary work at its core, and which understands our
current shift in digital technology as an opportunity for social and
political transformation. Critical DH foregrounds creative praxis,
co-creation, public engagement, and community-based research.
