Σύνοψη	Digital Oral History is a qualitative research method that uses digital technologies — audio and video recorders, online platforms, and digital archives — to collect, preserve, and disseminate first-person oral accounts of lived experience. It extends the established oral history tradition by leveraging digital tools to enhance accessibility, reach geographically dispersed participants, and enable long-term preservation and public engagement with recorded narratives.	Oral history is a qualitative research method that collects, preserves, and interprets first-person spoken accounts of past events, experiences, and social processes. By recording in-depth interviews with individuals who witnessed or participated in historical events, oral historians document perspectives that written records often exclude. The method bridges historical scholarship and social science, treating the narrator's memory, subjectivity, and voice as primary evidence rather than as limitations to be corrected.
