Centre for Digital Interculturality Studies
Interdisciplinary research centre exploring interculturality in digital spaces and beyond
Introducing the Centre
As cultural boundaries blur and virtual and physical spaces merge, interculturality and digitalization mould our everyday world. We’re convinced that these dual concepts should be viewed together, as they are frequently deeply entangled in various contexts. This is what our research centre ReDICo is dedicated to: Researching Digital Interculturality Co-operatively. Our vision is of a scholarly Intercultural Communication, informed by the perspectives of a critical and culturally-aware interdisciplinary Internet Studies. ReDICo also seeks to be an inclusive and environmentally-conscious research network, connecting academics and non-academics world-wide via the non proprietary, free ReDICo Hub, and a number of virtual conferences. We therefore don’t just study Digital Interculturality, we also actually do it!

We hope that you all had a good start into the new year! In the ReDICo team, we are already working at full speed on various tasks that we are now tackling in what is already the third project year and, thus, the second half of the project.
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
There’s snow on the ground here in Germany, the evenings are dark, and it’s time to look back at what we did in 2022. Maybe with your involvement? We would also like to look towards the brighter evenings that are coming and what’s planned for next year.
Publications
With our research we build upon already existent arguments and results, developing them further, and looking for new conclusions surrounding Digital Interculturality. We also benefit directly from the interdisciplinarity of our team, while our working style is co-operative. Our papers and publications are directed towards a wide audience: Our research team participates in conferences, leads workshops, enters articles for journals and produces a number of publications, in which the arguments of external academics may also be found. We consciously strive towards a multiplicity of formats and barrier-free access to our results. We, indeed, offer many of these as downloads here upon our website.
