Digital Hammurabi and Save Ancient Studies Alliance have partnered to create a new type of conference for ALL Ancient Studies scholars.
The goals of this conference are:
4.
Begin building a joint community of scholars including both those not on the traditional academic path and those in the ivory tower.
3.
Hold a conference freely available to the public.
Present and support excellent scholarship by scholars at the fringes of the academic community and researchers who have not followed the traditional tenure-track career path.
2.
Foster discussion and action regarding public outreach and scholarly inclusiveness.
La conferencia también incluirá dos debates para concluir cada jornada:
Diversidad en los estudios de la Antigüedad: Resolución de problemas mediante la divulgación
Research Outside the Academy: Building an Inclusive Environment
1.
We aim to bring together scholars who do not normally have the opportunity to present and engage with scholarship, including:
-
Completed a PhD and are now professionals in other fields
-
Left PhD programs
-
Contingent faculty
-
Academics from marginalized groups
-
Teachers, professors, and staff from all educational institutions
-
Cultural resource management professionals
-
Independent scholars

Se invita a todos los expertos en el Mediterráneo antiguo y Mesopotamia, en sentido amplio, a presentar propuestas de comunicaciones académicas en las áreas de Religión, Cultura o Historia. Además, se anima encarecidamente a todos los ponentes a participar en al menos uno de los dos grupos de debate que se indican a continuación.
En este contexto inclusivo, más allá de las presentaciones académicas, también organizaremos sesiones especiales en las que pretendemos debatir una serie de cuestiones relativas a la precaria situación de los Estudios de la Antigüedad. Estos debates abordarán las cuestiones de cómo desarrollar la divulgación por parte de los expertos en Estudios Antiguos, fomentar la inclusión y reimaginar la erudición como una búsqueda permanente dentro de una comunidad académica diversa pero inclusiva.
