DHNB Chair and DHNB2023 Co-Chair

Since April 2022, I have been chair of the Association for Digital Humanities in the Nordic and Baltic Countries. I will serve in this role until my term runs out in March 2024. My focus for these two years will be on the DHNB community, the people that make DHNB what it is – and how we can make our community a sustainable one. The Board will support the two existing working groups (DH in Higher Education and DH at Libraries, Archives, and Museums) and help form new working groups.

Together with colleagues from the University of Oslo Library, the University of Bergen Library, and the University of Stavanger “The Greenhouse” research group, I will co-chair the next DHNB conference. The conference will be held online from March 8th-10th, 2023. The overall theme is “Sustainability: Environment, Community, Digital”.

During my term as chair of DHNB, we will also see our first DH conference in Iceland! DHNB2024 is planned as an in-person event, gathering the local DH community and the larger Nordic and Baltic DH community.
