In accordance with the statutes of the Digital Humanities in the Nordic and Baltic Countries (DHNB) association, elections to the DHNB Board will be conducted by remote electronic vote in the period 16 February – 1 March 2026.

The Nomination Committee hereby invites nominations for board membership. Any member of the association may be nominated for election to the Board. In this election cycle, three of the nine board seats are up for election, each for a three-year term. All the three board members whose terms are ending are eligible to be re-elected and have conveyed that they intend to reapply. However, the election is open, and any member of the association may be nominated for election to the board. Thus, the Nomination Committee hereby invites any and all nominations for board membership.

Each nomination must be accompanied by:

• a short statement from the nominee confirming their willingness to serve, and
• the support of two DHNB members other than the nominee.

Nominations must reach the Nomination Committee no later than 15 February 2026.

The DHNB Board works to advance digital humanities across the Nordic and Baltic regions through monthly meetings and the allocation of specific responsibilities among board members. While the workload is manageable, board service presupposes an active engagement in supporting the association’s activities, networks, and strategic development.

DHNB is committed to openness and inclusivity and welcomes nominations reflecting the geographical, disciplinary, and institutional diversity of the Nordic and Baltic digital humanities community.

Questions regarding the nomination or election process may be directed to board@dhnb.eu.
Nominations, including a short bio and motivation from the nominee, should likewise be sent to this address.

With best regards,
On behalf of the Nomination Committee
