The IRC seeks to appoint a National Coordinating Institution and the role of National Coordinator for Ireland’s participation in the DARIAH ERIC.

DARIAH is a pan-European network for arts and humanities scholars working with computational methods. It supports digital research, as well as the teaching of digital research methods.

In November 2014 it was formally established as a European Research Infrastructure (ERIC).

DARIAH ERIC develops, maintains and operates an infrastructure in support of ICT-based research practices.

• representing the Council as required at national and international DARIAH events

• providing the secretariat and administration for the national DARIAH steering committee
• Liaise with Irish representatives who are involved within the four strategic pillars of DARIAH –  including education and research liaison  – to engage the digital humanities (DH) stakeholder community in Ireland with DH tools, making training accessible in using tools and repositories
