The Feminist Digital Methods Research Cluster (FDMRC) fosters communities of practice around feminist digital methods among practitioners, learners, and researchers across disciplinary and interdisciplinary fields, levels of expertise, and internationally. The FDMRC has a history of collaborative co-sponsored events and welcomes opportunities for partnership and cross-pollination. It is hosted by the Centre for Feminist Resarch at York University and is supported by York University Libraries’ Digital Scholarship Centre and Media Creation Lab. It holds open access values and welcomes practitioners, learners, and researchers with and without institutional and / or community-based affiliations. The FDMRC creates intentional space for dialogues, knowledge sharing, workshops, showcases, and presentations. We aim to centre early career scholars, though all feminist digital methods practitioners and learners are welcome.
