Join the Digital Intimacies Research Network

The DIRN seeks to connect researchers around the world studying the intimate side of digital society and cultures: from sex, romance, friendship and family to misinformation, harassment, and cancellation. We are a group of scholars across a range of disciplines including sociology, media and cultural studies, and beyond looking to build connections, share information, and foster new opportunities. We are particularly interested in supporting junior researchers to establish networks and opportunities for collaboration, and in joining together researchers in disparate fields who have a common set of interests in digital intimacies.

We are building on the success of a number of ‘digital intimacies’ events and groups, and welcome all interested members including research students. By completing the form below you will be added to our mailing list and a profile will be created for you on our website.
