National consortium CLARIAH-AT (external website)
Coordinated by Austrian Centre for Digital Humanities
Represented by Austrian Federal Ministry of Science, Research and Economy
CLARIAH-AT is the consortium of Austrian universities and research institutions that coordinates and drives Austrian activities in the European ESFRI research infrastructures CLARIN (Common Language Resources and Technology Infrastructure) and DARIAH (Digital Research Infrastructure for the Arts and Humanities).
The consortium brings together Austrian institutions with relevant expertise in research, development and teaching in the field of Digital Humanities as well as in the establishment and sustainable operation of research (data) infrastructures, which also play an active role in the Austrian development of Digital Humanities and the establishment and expansion of technical and social infrastructures for the humanities in general.
CLARIAH-AT activities are aligned with the Digital Humanities Austria Strategy 2021+, which is based on preliminary work by the consortium and a consultation of the Austrian professional community in the field of Digital Humanities. It defines four guidelines for the future development of Digital Humanities in Austria:
1) Research infrastructures and networks
2) Research data and repositories
3) Methods, and tools
4) Education, training and knowledge transfer
In addition to these strategic pillars, the CLARIAH-AT consortium is particularly committed to promoting DH projects and Early Career Digital Humanists.
