Nadezhda is also known as a head of the Research and Education Center for Digital Humanities ().

鈥淚n 2019, I completed an internship as a visiting researcher, Senior Level, at the Center for Contemporary and Digital History (C2DH) of the University of Luxembourg (Luxembourg). The center is one of the largest centers for digital history not only in Europe but also in the world, as it unites more than 70 researchers in its staff, and simultaneously conducts a whole kaleidoscope of projects.
The main purpose of the visit was to implement a project on the digital history of virtual museums. A whole lot of questions, the answers to which seemed completely ambiguous, prompted the necessity of such a study. Understanding the future directions of development of the digital infrastructure of museums largely depends on our knowledge of the past of these resources and their development,鈥�

The program inspired Nadezhda Povroznik to create a specifically for these purposes, providing opportunity to learn more about the history of virtual museums, look virtual museums鈥� snapshots, as well as get acquainted with interesting infographics for the project. The Digital History Journal serves a worthy continuation of Nadezhda鈥檚 research and practical activity.
