Ethnote (www.ethnote.dk) is a Danish-based tool for qualitative work built by and for social scientists. Whether working solo or in a team, Ethnote provides a specialized space for students and researchers to collect, store, process and analyze ethnographic and other qualitative data across devices, seamlessly, securely and systematically. Via hands-on examples, this talk will explore how the digital solution enables systematic workflows while maintaining the open-endedness of anthropological knowledge making. As a spin-out from the Center for Social Data Science at the University of Copenhagen, Ethnote is also an example of Europe’s emerging digitally sovereign software industry.
