The presentation is an introduction into the metadata standard CDMI / CLARIN used in the born-digital interview collections in Oral History

In recent years, the critical turn in digital humanities has sparked numerous discussions about digital literacy in the discipline of history. While critical work has focused on data, tools, and the skills that historians need in the current digital age, questions remain about the broader contours of digital literacy and the multiple meanings that could be attributed to it.

At the intersection of Digital History, History of the Digital, and Public History, this panel, organised and moderated by Valérie Schafer and consisting of four presentations, aims to explore the connections between public history and web history. It particularly delves into issues related to memories, legacies, as well as the intertwining of individual and collective experiences that shape the early days of the Web and contemporary practices.

After the Second World War, as Luxembourg abandoned its neutrality and engaged in international multilateralism and European integration, it adopted a new foreign policy that enabled women to embark on careers related to international relations, as Members of the European Parliament, of the Commission, or as technocrats and experts.

The history of European integration after the Second World War is characterized by a crisis-led policy-making process in which the small states and their leadership have played from the outset a critical role.

Custom physical representations offer innovative ways to explore and understand historical data. This project used 1922 census data from Brill Street in Esch-sur-Alzette, applying a human-centred approach to visualize household and inhabitant variables, to create an interactive experience that connected today's residents of the street and town with the street's history.

This paper proposes a lens of analysis for studying the history of public urban parks as spaces that fostered specific codes of conduct. The two case studies of post-war public urban park development in Richmond, Virginia (United States) and Hamburg (Germany) exemplify restoration ideas and ideals implemented by urban planners, politicians, and residents. This paper focuses on two historical contexts, which launched radical structural changes throughout the built environment in each case study.

An Interactive Panel Discussion on History, Technology, and the Transformation of the Archive, convened by Milan van Lange and Gerben Zaagsma.

In this paper, we relate participatory design (PD) scholarship with public history (PH) research, deepening the understanding of the relationship of PD with history, focusing on "history with PD". The latter refers to when history itself is explicitly the object of participation, and we discuss it by presenting a secondary analysis of a PH project, HistorEsch, conducted through the conceptual lens of infrastructuring. In this way, we show how PD and PH practices consider the past of a place and how they relate to public formation, intermediation, and proliferation.

This poster will introduce DHARPA (the Digital History Advanced Research Accelerator project) and its innovative data orchestration tool, kiara, demonstrating its applications for digital history through the research projects of three associated PhD students, exemplifying its application in practical research. It also aims to demonstrate the software’s ability to formalise research transparency and critical reflection of humanities datasets.

In our digitally evolving world, educators of history face the challenge of preparing students for an unpredictable future of rich and overwhelming data amidst a society of rapidly evolving technologies. This panel advocates for incorporating advanced tools at early educational levels to meet contemporary undergraduate teaching challenges and promote historical thinking. It is divided into three papers, each dedicated to a specific digital tool: Omeka S, Tropy, and GenAI. We argue that these tools provide invaluable

This short presentation delves into the ongoing interdisciplinary effort to create an efficient digital workflow for collecting, researching, and archiving born-digital audio testimonies from the ongoing Russian invasion of Ukraine.
