Subject: Call for Workshops: 16th European Summer University in Digital Humanities
Dear colleagues,
The European Summer University in Digital Humanities (ESU) invites
proposals for workshops for the upcoming 16th edition in Université
Marie-et-Louis-Pasteur, Besançon, France from July 6 – July 18, 2026.
Workshop areas. We are particularly looking for proposals covering:
- Audiovisual analysis and cultural analytics;
- Computational & digital philology;
- Statistics for humanities;
- Design and construction of databases and corpora;
- Large Language Models and critical AI.
All digital humanities scholars and practitioners, GLAM professionals,
interdisciplinary teams at the intersection of humanities, social science
and computer science are welcome to submit.
Workshop formats
1. Two week course (15 + 15 teaching hours, + 1.5h (x2) open teaser
session);
2. One week course (15 teaching hours + 1.5h teaser);
Two week workshops will be prioritized in evaluation as they are the core
teaching units of the ESU. They run in parallel across the schedule and are
designed as comprehensive, intensive hands-on training in key areas of
Digital Humanities. Each workshop’s optimal audience is 10-12 participants
for efficient learning; a workshop may be cancelled if it has less than 5
registered participants.
Submission & timeline. To submit a proposal, please prepare:
- Instructors' CV (max. 2 pages) and short bio (max. 250 words);
- Title and short abstract (max. 250 words);
- Extended description and syllabus (800–1200 words), including a
day-by-day outline
- Please include intended outcomes, any prerequisites, description of
datasets and materials, technical requirements
Proposals should be submitted by March 1 via the form here
<https://framaforms.org/european-summer-university-in-digital-humanities-
workshop-application-1764764943>.
The Steering Committee will review the applications and announce results on
March 6.
Evaluation. Workshops will be evaluated according to their 1) scientific
and pedagogical quality; 2) fit to the school’s scope; 3) feasibility; 4)
diversity and inclusiveness; 5) sustainability and openness.
Practicalities. Accommodation and most meals (with some evenings and Sunday
possibly excluded) will be provided for all instructors during their stay
in Besançon. Travel costs within Europe will be fully covered;
reimbursement of travel costs from outside Europe will be partial and must
be agreed upon with the local organizers prior to the start of the ESU. A
small teaching honorarium can be expected. Further information will be
provided by the local organizers once the workshop’s financial arrangements
are secured.
We usually avoid significant thematic overlap in the workshop offer, so there
will be less priority given to proposals on distant reading, mapping and
GIS, stylometry, TEI-XML and digital archives.
Feel free to write to esudhsteering [@] gmail.com if you wish to inquire
about the fit of your workshop or have any other questions.
With best wishes,
Chairs of the ESU Steering Committee

persons interested in issues related to language and knowledge engineering.
TOTh 2023 Proceedings
