Digital Humanities Early-Career Välipala: Economic data and history

Digital Humanities early career välipala is a regular event for early career humanities and social sciences researchers. It offers a free form opportunity to discuss and share experiences of digital methods in research. The focus is on digital good practices, stumbling blocks and tricks regarding use of data, tools and analysis methods.

Snacks will be provided in the form of insights on new methods, testimonials… and cake!

Welcome from 2 – 3:30 pm at Metsätalo (C627) Please register and share experiences here (https://forms.cloud.microsoft/e/HXEjiJWCPk) the latest one day in advance to make sure there are snacks for all.

The session in October 2026 focuses on adapting and utilising various economy-related datasets as sources in historical research

Each session starts with a brief introduction into a theme by researchers working on a similar topic to facilitate free-form and open conversation. We aim to build a community and space to create and find connections. The DH välipalat are organised by and for early-career researchers. We are a group of interdisciplinary folk based in Helsinki supported by DARIAH-FI The digital research infrastructure for the arts and humanities.
