        Subject: GIS-focused Online Networking Event - May 1st

Dear all,

We write to let you know of a few updates regarding
GeoHumSIG <https://geohumanities.org/>, a special interest group within ADHO
focusing on digital approaches to the Spatial Humanities. If you are not
subscribed to our GeoHumSig mailing list, you can do so here<https://lists.digit
alhumanities.org/mailman/lists/geohumsig.lists.digitalhumanities.org/>.

First of all, we would like to announce that there has been a restructuring of
the convenors of this SIG. Thanks to the initiative of co-convenor Benjamin Vis,
a new team has joined him in his efforts to maintain and revitalise this Special
Interest Group within ADHO. The new team of convenors follows below:

Vincent Baptist (Delft University of Technology)
Stuart Dunn (King’s College London)
Wendy Perla Kurtz (University of California, Los Angeles)
Pedro Nilsson-Fernàndez (University College Cork)
Katherine McDonough (Lancaster University and The Alan Turing Institute)
Joana Vieira Paulino (Universidade NOVA de Lisboa)
Benjamin Vis (Université Libre de Bruxelles and Universidad Autonoma de Yucatan)

To mark this change in convenorship, we would like to invite you to an online
networking event preceding this year’s ADHO Annual Conference at the
Universidade NOVA de Lisboa<https://dh2025.adho.org/>.

Please sign up for this event using this short form<https://docs.google.com/form
s/d/e/1FAIpQLSd2wQayfHQC6ENXCeH-k56VHbf6MDWtlVcunO75zOcjLmwgDg/viewform?usp=head
er>.

This event will be held on Teams on Thursday May 1, 2025 from 17:00-19:00 GMT.

We welcome 3-minute short introductions to speak to other members of the list
about you and your work within the GeoHumanities. Whether you are an old-time
contributor to this forum or a newcomer, we would like you to let us know about
yourself in 3 slides:
1- Who you are and what your background is
2- What your contribution to the field has been in the past
3- What you are working on at the moment (this could be your submission to ADHO
or your current work) + future plans and projects.

We hope to gather as many voices from the community as possible in this online
event: postgraduate students, early-career researchers, but also experienced
scholars and practitioners.
Please join us in this small event and take it as an opportunity to reconnect
and discuss the future of GeoHumSIG.

Looking forward to hearing from you.

On behalf of the GeoHumSIG co-convenors.

Kind regards,

—

Dr Pedro Nilsson-Fernàndez | he/him/ell
Lecturer, Department of Digital Humanities
University College Cork, Ireland
