Projects carried out within the digital humanities are deliberate partnerships of scientists, scientific institutions, information institutions and research environments, and may include the creation of relationships with civil society organizations, individuals and communities, and financial and institutional promoters. Their scientific work is related to the concept of changing the research paradigm and work culture in the humanities, but their importance is also evident in the understanding of the humanities as potential drivers of social and economic development. As a contribution to the knowledge of the phenomenon, the paper includes the analysis of six projects in the field of cultural heritage by the research method of qualitative content analysis with the aim of distinguishing their features and the secondary purpose of creating a short draft of a potential project. As interdisciplinary and interinstitutional endeavors of various purposes and outcomes that include work in many digital-humanistic subdomains and involve complex forms of partnerships and cooperation, consideration of infrastructural and methodological and general scientific progress, projects are characterized by project management as a way of their management and (in)direct influence. to scientific as well as local communities, which is why their synergistic cooperation is the subject of numerous social and institutional supports. The concept of digital-humanistic project as a primarily scientific research that gets its full share by simultaneously fulfilling its educational and social significance, has a fundamental advocate in European Union programs and funds and the acceptance of cultural heritage as an economic value.
