The DARIAH Annual Events are always a great opportunity to link up with colleagues from different fields with similar interests, to discuss common challenges and visions, and plan future projects and cooperation. The results are often unexpected and exciting!

This was my first experience in the “research work field” as I am still a student, but I have seen so much passion during the presentations! It helped me think about my own research topic and it was fascinating to see the diversity of the Digital Humanities fieldwork.

The positive atmosphere created by all attendees who are passionate about Open Science and sustainable research practices is very motivating. I left the conference with a plethora of new ideas and enthusiasm.

The DARIAH-EU Annual Event in Lisbon was a great opportunity for our Working Group to invite our Iberian members, and to contact members/chairs of other Working Groups or persons presenting projects with whom we plan to interact in future.

I have not missed a DARIAH Annual Event since 2016. It is one of the “must-do” events in my schedule each year, because I wouldn’t want to miss this opportunity for exchange with like-minded colleagues – many of whom have become dear friends through many years of working together in DARIAH-EU – and the development of new ideas and collaborations. The Annual Event is a great showcase of one of the most important aspects and strengths of DARIAH-EU: It is, among and perhaps above all else, an infrastructure of –people- who are burning for Digital Humanities.
