Global Forum on Digital Humanities and Languages

The Global Forum on Digital Humanities and Languages combines two
events: the V VariaR International Colloquium: planning, safeguarding
and using linguistic diversity data collections and the satellite
event I International Forum on Digital Humanities and Linguistics:
interactions and possible futures.
The event, which is academic, scientific and technological in nature,
is the consolidation of a global project that involves a network of
actions in favor of the conception of a culture and a digital
repository infrastructure for data collections of languages and their
varieties against the
backdrop of discussions about Brazilian projects in this direction,
such as InCorpora and the Brazilian Linguistic Diversity Platform (the
idea of which is at stake, since the beginning of 2019, in the
Sociolinguistics WG of ANPOLL and currently also in ABRALIN) and a
network of
national/international researchers that has been consolidated from
four editions of colloquia and seminars held in the Franco-Brazilian
VariaR project and an edition of a congress held in the Brazilian
Predicar project. These actions and interactions have mobilized
constant dialogues with researchers from areas covered by the
so-called Digital Humanities.
The Forum aims to promote: (i) exchange and debate on current trends
in Brazil and around the world regarding the gathering (by field
research or access to text sources), organization, storage and
applicability of language data collections, in view of technological
advances and the interests of different fields in the broad area of
Literatures and Linguistics and other broad areas of knowledge, and
(ii) foster a network of studies on the treatment of diversity in
Romance languages and other languages: phonetic-phonological,
prosodic, morphological, lexical, morphosyntactic, syntactic,
textual-discursive aspects.
The HDLinguagens Global Forum will be held during the week of June
9-13, 2025 at the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro/Brazil
[in-person event, at least for now], through an interdisciplinary
partnership between the Languages and Computing courses at this
university and other universities. This partnership inaugurates the
HDLinguagens Global Forum as an inter-institutional space for
dialogue, cooperative work and co-learning, in which these
institutions from the state of Rio de Janeiro and outside Brazil are
participating: Rio de Janeiro State University, Fluminense Federal
University, Rural Federal University of Rio de Janeiro, University of
Madeira, University of Trieste, University of Augsburg, University of
Ghent, University of Lille.
