Meeting Description:

Today, there are many ways in which the human and social sciences use digital
resources and technology to investigate different aspects of human life. As
the significance and use of digital resources continually expands into new
fields of study, there are some disciplines which have already been working
with digital data for decades. As such, researchers now produce and have
access to an increasing range of different digital materials, offering new
opportunities for interdisciplinary scholarly work and enabling certain data
to be approached from different viewpoints and with novel and diverse
methodologies.

The Digital Research Data and Human Sciences (DRDHum 2022) conference aims to
bring together researchers who have different areas of interest and expertise
to discuss the themes of data compilation and management, and to share their
knowledge and experience of using digital materials, methods, and data
analysis tools. We are especially keen for researchers and research groups who
have implemented interdisciplinary research to participate in the event. We
are inviting scholars of all ages and experience, teachers, graduate students,
and any other parties that might be interested to participate and contribute
to this event.

DRDHum 2022 is organized by the University of Jyväskylä in collaboration with
FIN-CLARIAH. The event is the second in a series of conferences that,
postponed once because of COVID, will normally take place every other year in
one of the FIN-CLARIAN Consortium universities (part of CLARIAH Finland – a
research infrastructure for social sciences and the humanities). The first
(D)RDHum Conference was hosted at the University of Oulu in 2019, where the
focus was specifically on linguistic text corpora. The second conference – at
the University of Jyväskylä – will have a wider scope. Not only will the event
look at the use of digital resources and technologies in fields such as the
social sciences, language and communication sciences, and behavioural sciences
(for instance), but discussions this year are also encouraged to go beyond
textual data and also look at multimodal forms such as social media data, grid
databases, and big data.

Call for Papers:

Submission guidelines
The submission for proposals opens on 1 January 2022.

Authors are invited to submit an abstract for theoretical or empirical work
(maximum length 500 words), which should indicate the research questions, data
and methods used, and any (tentative) results if applicable. We also offer the
opportunity to submit an article for the conference publication later in the
spring 2022. Further information on the publication will be provided in the
second call for proposals.

Besides oral and poster presentations, the conference offers a venue for
thematic workshops and tutorials. Workshops will address a particular topic
within the general theme of the conference, whereas tutorials can deal with
specific types of resources, software, or methods. Workshops and tutorials can
also be designed with specific interest groups in mind, such as degree or
postgraduate students. The chair of the workshop or tutorial will be required
to submit an abstract (500 words) introducing the proposed topic, the aim of
the event and the expected audience. A list of those workshops and tutorials
which have been accepted will then be announced on the conference website.
After this, submissions to the workshops or tutorials themselves can then be
made, following further instructions that will have been given by the
organizers.
We therefore invite the following types of submission:

1. Abstract for an oral presentation (20 min + 10 min for discussion) or
poster presentation (500 words)
or
2. Proposal for a workshop or tutorial (500 words). 

Important Dates:

- Submission of proposals for workshops and tutorials: Jan 31, 2022
- Acceptance of proposals for workshops and tutorials: Feb 15, 2022
- Submission of abstracts: Feb 28, 2022
- Acceptance of abstracts: Mar 15, 2022
- Submission of articles: May 15, 2022
- Conference: Dec 1–3, 2022
