Malach Center for Visual History at Charles University in Prague invites submissions for the Prague Visual History and Digital Humanities Conference (PraViDCo) organized on 27–28 January 2020 in Prague on the occasion of the 10th anniversary of the Center's foundation.
The scope of the conference reflects the interdisciplinary focus of the Malach Center for Visual History activities, therefore we invite submissions thematically encompassing great number of disciplines: history, computational linguistics, genocide studies, sociology, oral history, human-computer interaction, anthropology, digital humanities, psychology, political science and more.
In order to guarantee such diversity, we welcome paper submissions in English from both senior and junior scholars and researchers. Limited amount of travel fellowships, this year with special focus on candidates from the countries of Central, South-Eastern and Eastern Europe, will be available for participants based on their statement of interest in financial support. No registration fee is required, however, please note that the organizers do not provide any coverage of travel and accommodation expenses without the above mentioned fellowship application.
Submission Guidelines
All accepted papers will be published in a collective compendium, which will be already completed by the time of the conference itself.
