Themes

The theme of the 2021 call is Crowd sourcing & Research.
In 2020 the European Commission published the Europeana Strategy 2020-2025, which presents crowd sourcing as one of the paths we are taking to improve metadata quality on the Europeana platform. In line with European’s mission to empower the cultural heritage sector in its digital transformation, we want to also consider the perspective of cultural heritage institutions, for which crowd sourcing is both a way to enrich their digital collections and engage their communities of reference.
While crowd sourcing is generally meant as a participatory method underpinning Citizen Science, we aim to move beyond this concept and consider the role that researchers can play both as contributors to crowd sourced projects and reusers of digital resources collected or enriched in this way. As potential contributors of content, they may feel that their expertise is not adequately rewarded. As potential reusers of content, they may question its reliability.
They welcome proposals for events that can help focus issues related to crowdsourcing and find constructive solutions to them, especially if these solutions come out from recent or ongoing experiences. More generally, the proposals must be relevant by reference to the framework defined by the EU’s strategies and programmes related to Research and Innovation. Possible topics include but are not limited to:
Participatory research focusing on cultural heritage (e.g Public History)
Data ownership, accountability and value in the context of crowdsourced research
Re-creation / Re-contextualisation
De-colonising of metadata
Community generated metadata
Post-custodial perspective
Proposals can address the field of cultural heritage in general or focus on one of its specific sectors (such as galleries, libraries, archives, or museums). They can also focus on challenges and opportunities for specific academic disciplines that use digital cultural heritage as a resource for research (for instance all the disciplines within the humanities, such as archaeology, history, linguistics, history of art and architecture).
Funding Information

The Research Grants Programme benefits from the total amount of EUR 25,000 per year.
This year, EUR 21,000 is allocated to in-person events and EUR 4,000 to special prizes.

The COVID-19 pandemic has proven the value of digital transformation. Digital events have quickly replaced in-person ones, whenever possible. Universities have adapted their courses into online classes. In line with Europeana’s mission to develop expertise, tools and policies to embrace digital change, we want to award special prizes (EUR 2,000) to two cultural heritage professionals, professors or researchers willing to make video tutorials between October 2021 and March 2022. Prize recipients can also work in equipe and will be asked to send an offer of up to EUR 2,000 for a tutorial of three hours minimum, also distributed over a number of videos/units

SCOPE

Applicants are invited to submit proposals that
address challenges and opportunities related to the reuse of digital cultural heritage in research;
help build up the digital capabilities of cultural heritage professionals involved in cross-sectoral projects;
encourage collaborations between the cultural heritage and the research sectors.
The Europeana Research Grants Programme is made possible by the European Commission’s Connecting Europe Facility (CEF) Programme. The grants are intended for planning and organising:
Conferences
Workshops
Series of seminars
Summer/Autumn/Winter/Spring schools
Training activities
In response to the COVID-19 outbreak and the digital shift it has imposed on Academia and Research, part of the annual budget will be allocated to special prizes
