Description: The Digital Research Ethics Collaboratory brings together stories, questions, provocations and proposals from researchers, archivists, publishers, community organizers and artists grappling with the ethical challenges of building equitable research relationships and reciprocal research cultures, digitizing, archiving, publishing and other forms of “onlining” previously not-online minoritized cultural heritage materials and practices, and researching social media and other user-generated content, networks and socialities.
