Our activities

The Mandela Digital Humanities Hub is involved in diverse projects within digital humanities and related fields such as computational linguistics, Natural Language Processing, and Artificial Intelligence. We also facilitate a platform for ongoing projects in these domains, fostering collaboration and networking. As a result, some of our recent initiatives involve the organisation of spaces dedicated to these purposes.
