<p>Dear Darja,</p>
<p>I am happy to provide you with the info for Germany. Please note
that due to internal re-organization of CLARIN-D responsibilities,
I am now acting as User Involvement representative for CLARIN-D,
with Jennifer Koritko acting as my deputy. Please make sure that
you include her (see cc to this email) in all communication about
UI since Jennifer Koritko will be handling much of the
communication on my behalf.</p>
<p>Revamping of the CLARIN ERIC webpage about UI is surely useful.
Even more urgent, though, is the preparation of a user involvement
strategy by CLARIN ERIC's Executive Director and its Director of
User Involvement. The User Involvement Document produced by your
predecessor is not sufficient and cannot form the basis for user
involvement activities to be coordinated by ERIC's UI committee.
Germany has pointed this out at the past two GA meetings in
Copenhagen and Athens and been asking for a new written strategy.
Sadly, this has not been acting upon up to now and remains a
necessary step before CLARIN-D can effectively engage in further
UI activities at the ERIC level.</p>
<p>Germany continues to look forward to a comprehensive user
involvement strategy in written form as input to the next UI
committee meeting and as a basis for further work on this
committee.<br>
</p>
<p>Thank you and best wishes for the holidays and the new year,</p>
<p>Erhard</p>

<br>
CLARIN-D is working closely with more two-hundred scholars in
digital humanities and social sciences disciplines in Germany.
The work is organized in eight disciplinary working groups
(Facharbeitsgruppen) and in thematic working groups that convene
regularly in face-to-face and virtual meetings. CLARIN-D further
holds several yearly dissemination events at the national level
and co-sponsors the annual European Summer University in Digital
Humanities (ESU) at the University of Leipzig, to which it
contributes course offerings taught by researchers of CLARIN-D
centers.<br>

are available in German and usually also in English):<br>
