This paper summarizes the research agenda and work in progress in the project “The Humanities in Virtual Reality (HumaniVR)”. It discusses how disciplines such as linguistics, sociology and anthropology can benefit from research on Virtual Reality (VR) as a new space of social interaction, communication, and culture, particularly concerning its role as a new social medium of growing importance (Social VR). It summarizes the first research results of the experimental work in HumaniVR, and future directions.
