Inclusive Data Research Skills for Arts and Humanities/Section 3

Session plan: Hacking the Research Journey Brief session description A core challenge for arts and humanities researchers interested in pursuing data-oriented research is finding ways to navigate their research pathways. During the DAReS project thus far, the research journey was important for both inclusion and data skills. This includes challenging the structural inequalities that limit arts and humanities researchers’ access to data skills but also figuring out ways to plan, design and identify sources of funding. This session critically engages with these challenges, hacking the research journey itself, the solutions to common problems, with the objective of forming a self-sustaining network of arts and humanities researchers potentially co-launching projects. The objectives of this section were to: Co-develop three data-oriented arts and humanities research projects, which have potential to develop into funding applications and conference panels Creating a self-sustaining community of arts and humanities researchers interested in data and digital research Co-write a research journey guide for arts and humanities researchers interested in data and digital research, using Wikibooks as a tool.
