The InDICEs Bootcamp will bring together professionals and practitioners working at the intersection of data, digitization and cultural heritage to explore and experiment with how data can impact and inform the future of digital cultural heritage. Together with DigitalFems, CIMA, the Europeana Steering Committee, Tecnopolítica/UOC, Wikimedians and various actors from GLAM institutions, four Flash Task Forces with up to 8 participants will work on different thematic areas from gender inequality in CHIs to digital participation in the GLAMs sector and the use of data in participatory culture. 

The Cultural Heritage Sector is a key enabler of the advancement of the Cultural and Creative Industries in Europe. Not only does it provide access to vast amounts of reusable cultural content, it can be seen as a R&D lab of the cultural and creative ecosystem through which it contributes both to the economic advancement and to society at large. However, researchers and policy-makers are struggling to fully understand the crucial role that the Cultural Heritage Sector can play in the digitisation process of the cultural and creative ecosystem in Europe.
