Digital Humanities Advancement Grants (DHAG) is sponsored by National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) / Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS). Supports digital projects throughout their life cycles, from early start-up phases through implementation and long-term sustainability.
Experimentation, reuse, and extensibility are hallmarks of this grant category, leading to innovative work that can scale to enhance research, teaching, and public programming in the humanities.
Projects can involve creating or enhancing experimental, computationally-based methods, techniques, or infrastructure that contribute to the humanities; pursuing scholarship that examines the history, criticism, and philosophy of digital culture and its impact on society; or conducting evaluative studies that investigate the practices and the impact of digital scholarship on research, pedagogy, scholarly communication, and public engagement.
A special partnership with IMLS encourages collaborations between museum or library professionals and humanities professionals to advance preservation of, access to, use of, and engagement with digital collections and services.
