DH from an Indigenous Perspective: Strengthening Partnerships between Indigenous Communities, Scholars, Museums, and Archives
The study of how four Indigenous communities, with whom this team
collaborated on a Digital Humanities Start-Up Grant to digitally repatriate
archival materials, have used those materials in culture and language
revitalization efforts.
This grant proposes to study how four Indigenous partners built digital
archives based on Indigenous epistemologies and how they are using the
materials for cultural and language revitalization. The grant will also support
DH projects being constructed by the four communities using the digitally
repatriated materials, which reflect how DH tools and theories take on very
different forms when incorporated into Indigenous knowledge systems.
