DiLCo (Digital language variation in context) is a 3-year international research networking project initiated in early 2021 by Jannis Androutsopoulos and Heike Zinsmeister at the University of Hamburg. Its aim is to provide a platform for the development of new, interdisciplinary ideas in the field of digital language and communication research, and for early-career capacity building.
The network builds on a strategic partnership collaboration between Universität Hamburg and Indiana University, and is funded by the German 'excellence initiative' for the promotion of university research.
