International Correspondents

While 4Humanities began with participants and local chapters in Anglophone countries, it seeks to extend its scope and audience to other nations. To that end, 4Humanities International Correspondents are humanities researchers from non-Anglophone nations that report on events, policies, statements, and issues relating to the state of the humanities or advocacy for the humanities in the correspondent’s country. Sponsorship for these international correspondent positions during 2011-13 came from the Association for Computers and the Humanities (ACH), the Association for Literary and Linguistic Computing (ALLC), and the Canadian Institute for Research Computing in the Arts (CIRCA).
