Meeting Description:

The Digital Humanities Association of Southern Africa (DHASA) is
pleased to announce its fourth conference, focusing on the theme
"Digital Humanities for Inclusion." In a region where the field of
Digital Humanities is still relatively underdeveloped, this conference
aims to address this gap and foster growth and collaboration in the
field. The conference offers an opportunity for researchers interested
in showcasing their work in the broad field of Digital Humanities to
come together. By doing so, the conference provides a comprehensive
overview of the current state-of-the-art in Digital Humanities,
particularly within the Southern Africa region. As such, we welcome
submissions related to Digital Humanities research conducted by
individuals from Southern Africa or research focused on the
geographical area of Southern Africa.

Furthermore, the conference serves as a platform for information
sharing and networking among researchers passionate about Digital
Humanities. By bringing together experts working on Digital Humanities
in Southern Africa or with a focus on Southern Africa, we aim to
promote collaboration and facilitate further research in this dynamic
field. In addition to the main conference, affiliated workshops and
tutorials will be organized, providing researchers with valuable
insights into novel technologies and tools. These supplementary events
are designed for researchers interested in specific aspects of Digital
Humanities or seeking practical information to enter or advance their
knowledge in the field.

The DHASA conference welcomes interdisciplinary contributions from
researchers in various domains of Digital Humanities, including, but
not limited to, language, literature, visual art, performance and
theatre studies, media studies, music, history, sociology, psychology,
language technologies, library studies, philosophy, methodologies,
software and computation, and more. Our goal is to cultivate an
inclusive scientific community of practice within Digital Humanities.

Suggested topics include the following:
* Digital archives and the preservation of marginalized voices;
* Intersectionality and the digital humanities: exploring the
intersections of race, gender, sexuality, and class in digital
research and activism;
* Activism and social change through digital media: how digital
humanities tools and methodologies can be used to promote inclusion;
* Engaging marginalized communities in the creation and use of digital
tools and resources;
* Exploring the role of digital humanities in decolonizing knowledge
and promoting indigenous perspectives;
* The ethics of data collection and analysis in digital humanities
research related;
* The role of digital humanities in promoting inclusive and equitable
pedagogy;
* Digital humanities and inclusion in the context of global
perspectives and international collaborations;
* Critical approaches to digital humanities and inclusion: examining
the limitations and possibilities of digital tools and methodologies
in promoting inclusion; and
* Collaborative digital humanities projects with non-profit
organizations, community groups, and cultural institutions;
* Any other digital humanities-related topic that serves the Southern
African community.
