Through the efforts of DigiHUBB, the Babeș-Bolyai University has signed a new Cooperating Partnership agreement with the Digital Research Infrastructure for the Arts and Humanities (DARIAH-EU).

“We are very pleased to welcome UBB back to the DARIAH family, which represents not only a natural continuation of our common projects, such as the SSH Open Marketplace and the ESU Summer School for Digital Humanities, but also a real chance to work towards Romanian national Membership in DARIAH,” said Edward J. Gray, DARIAH’s Officer for National Coordination.

“Access to and participation in major European research infrastructures are integral components of our university’s research internationalization strategy. The DARIAH Cooperating Partnership offers our top researchers the opportunity to collaborate with their European counterparts in the Arts and Humanities, creating an open space for scientific cooperation. Additionally, it provides Babeș-Bolyai University with the chance to bring together all major research institutions, governing bodies, and funding organisations in Romania as a consortium with a wealth of human resources and data from the arts and humanities to share with the DARIAH community and beyond.” – Dr. Christian Schuster, director of DigiHUBB and the ESU-DH at Babeș-Bolyai University.
