Digital Practices in History and Ethnography Interest Group</a> (DPHE-IG), in the
<a href="https://rd-alliance.org/" target="_blank">Research Data Alliance (</a>RDA), an international initiative to facilitate the development of effective data practices, standards and infrastructure in particular research areas, and across research areas

<span style="font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:black">RDA’s DPHE-IG works to advance data standards, practices and infrastructure for historical and ethnographic research, contributing to broader efforts in the digital humanities and social sciences.
Bi-weekly calls move the work of the group forward. Many meetings are “project shares” during which someone leading a digital project describes their efforts and challenges. Some calls are with other RDA groups (such as the Provenance Interest Group), aiming
to draw their expertise into our work in history and ethnography. </span><o:p></o:p></p>
