The CETAPS Digital Laboratory announces a two-day meeting on Digital Humanities, taking place on October 29-30, 2024, at the Faculty of Arts and Humanities, University of Porto. This event aims to bring together experts, researchers, and experts from the field to discuss the evolving opportunities and challenges in Digital Humanities. By fostering open dialogue with representatives from three renowned digital humanities centres, we hope to create an engaging platform for collaboration.
We are thrilled to host two special guests, who will each lead different workshops
