To help get a new project started and/or clear hurdles, each team is assigned a Liaison expert to consult on the project and help connect them to other experts. The schedule for the week includes focused team time supplemented by panels and talks designed around the cohort. This allows time for hands-on exploration and open inquiry and allows for the community to drive professional development throughout the week through responsive pop-up sessions and spontaneous collaborations. Over the course of the week, team members will learn more about their own collaboration and how to sustain their project into the future. The steering committee encourages proposals from teams in whole or in part new to digital scholarship. We especially encourage projects led by undergraduates, as well as staff and early career faculty. Additionally, we invite proposals from teams that include members who are Black, Indigenous, Latinx, and people of color, people with disabilities, neurodivergent people, and LGBTQ+ people. Projects of all types, and in any stage, are welcomed. We employ an expansive definition of "digital project" that can include topics like infrastructure development and pedagogical practice. As you prepare your submission, please follow the proposal guidelines<https://nam11.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Filiads.org%2Fproposal-guidelines%2F&data=05%7C01%7Cswroberts%40emory.edu%7C2216436ebefa4afd344b08db141204e5%7Ce004fb9cb0a4424fbcd0322606d5df38%7C0%7C0%7C638125840786304043%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C1000%7C%7C%7C&sdata=Zc5xv6u6AH68XTjJB%2FWPv8vnSwhBI8ErFZ0JUlUuiIQ%3D&reserved=0>.
