Funds Awarded

CDHI is leading innovation in digital humanities research at the University of Toronto by providing seed funding to faculty- and librarian-led research projects. We are training the next generation of critical DH scholars with undergraduate, graduate, and postdoctoral fellowships. Our funding programs offer more than just needed financial resources: each program includes focused mentorship, consultations that link researchers to research facilities support, knowledge mobilization support, and connection to broader audiences.

Events and Workshops

Critical digital humanities scholars are widely dispersed across the University of Toronto’s divisions and campuses. To build an inclusive, cross-divisional research community and create opportunities for connection, CDHI has developed robust programming, such as an international conference, research showcases, Lightning Lunches, and an annual Visiting Speaker Series. In Fall 2023, CDHI is launching a new Indigenous Digital Practice initiative with events and programs centred on the research needs and interests of Indigenous scholars at the University of Toronto. The workshops and training sessions organized by the CDHI team provide key opportunities for convergence among researchers and are developing highly qualified personnel. Attracting an international audience, our events and workshops have raised the profile of CDHI and the University of Toronto across Canada and around the world.

Engagement

Across our platforms, CDHI is fostering a growing network of DH researchers throughout the University of Toronto, Canada, and the world. We are committed to providing resources, training, and support, and to mobilizing knowledge within the University and to wider audiences through storytelling, community engagement, media coverage, and our Critical Digital Humanities International Conference. These outreach efforts provide CDHI researchers with a global audience — and this increases the impact and reach of our work.
