Humans in Humanities Network

The Humans in Humanities Network aims to facilitate interdisciplinary dialogue among humanities researchers on how the human is imagined and represented, recognised and theorised, and engaged and interrogated across the humanities, and to create a reflective space for rethinking what it entails to conduct humanities research in a way that allows people to be seen, heard, and understood.

To join our mailing list and receive updates on network events, please email human-ities@torch.ox.ac.uk. (The mailing list will go live at the end of Week1 of HT2026.)

While the network foregrounds issues in a humanities context, researchers from the sciences and social sciences are also welcome to join discussions and events.
