The 10th edition of the annual DH Benelux conference serves as a platform for the community of interdisciplinary Digital Humanities researchers to meet, present and discuss their latest research findings and to demonstrate tools and projects. This year’s central theme is ‘Crossing Borders’.

The demand for opening data has grown and we need to be prepared to ensure proper repository services to allow a proper future reuse of data. With this theme in the Dataverse Community meeting 2023 they would like to emphasise the issue of the sustainability of their services and infrastructures, reflecting on the impact they have on the quality of (FAIR and Open) data as a contribution to in-depth research into disaster response.

Inspired by the proclamation “cultural heritage data is humanities research data”, this year’s DARIAH Annual Event will seek to explore what this means in practice.

Mixed-mode surveys have become indispensable in scientific, market and policy research in the Netherlands and Flanders. This type of research has been used for years, but the during the Covid pandemic existing developments in mixed-mode research have - sometimes of necessity - gained momentum. Reason enough for the Dutch-Speaking Platform Survey Research (NPSO) to organise its annual day around the central theme 'What is the future for mixed-mode survey research?'.

On Monday 12 June, we will present our Data Stations. We will show you how to deposit your dataset and how to find datasets for reuse.

Together with meemoo, UGent and the Platform Linked Data Netherlands (PLDN), NDE will update you on current developments around the decentralised web and Solid from a broader heritage, media, research and community perspective. This symposium will be in Dutch.

19 - 30 June | After its successful first run last summer, ODISSEI will host its second Summer Institute in Computational Social Science (SICCS). The purpose is to bring together social and data scientists interested in computational social science. SICSS-ODISSEI is unique within the SICSS framework in focusing primarily on the analysis of administrative data. Photo of SICSS-ODISSEI 2022 by MG Fotografie / Michel Groen

This webinar presents the results of the Monitoring obsolete file formats project. The aim of the project was to investigate whether obsolete file formats can be identified. Identification can ensure that timely action is taken to prevent the data from being accessed in the future. The research will be explained by Sam Alloing (Royal Library), Lotte Wijsman (National Archive) and Valentijn Gilissen (DANS). The webinar will be held in Dutch.
