National Endowment for the Humanities is seeking applications for its Digital Humanities Advancement Grants (DHAG) to support digital projects throughout their lifecycles, from early start-up phases through implementation and long-term sustainability. Experimentation, reuse, and extensibility are hallmarks of this program, leading to innovative work that can scale to enhance scholarly research, teaching, and public programming in the humanities.
Digital Humanities Advancement Grants may involve:
- creating or enhancing experimental, computationally-based methods, techniques, or infrastructure that contribute to the humanities;
- pursuing scholarship that examines the history, criticism, and philosophy of digital culture and its impact on society, or explores the philosophical or practical implications and impact of digital humanities in specific fields or disciplines; or
- revitalizing and/or recovering existing digital projects that promise to contribute substantively to scholarship, teaching, or public knowledge of the humanities.
Award information
Digital Humanities Advancement Grants have three levels of funding:
- Level I grants range from $10,000 to $50,000 in outright funding.
