Empowering Future Scholars: Supporting PhD students’ training needs

Community Engagement WG is happy to announce that our proposal for the fourth Working Groups (WG) Funding Scheme Call for the years 2023-2025 was selected for funding. 🏆 We are thrilled to start our project on supporting PhD students’ training needs. 🥳

In the previous funding cycle, the WG Community Engagement undertook a comprehensive survey to investigate the training needs of PhD students (link to the report). With this coming project, the findings of this study will be put into practice to develop and deliver training materials, showcase best practices and enrich existing catalogues of tools and workflows. 

The Community Engagement Working Group is going to host one in-person and three online workshops to help PhD students from different humanities disciplines without much prior experience get started with DH methods. 

The developed education and training materials will increase intercommunity collaboration and provide a valuable resource for emerging scholars. We hope that through the integration of the developed material and workflows with the SSH marketplace, the project will be a good addition to existing tools and services.
