This study explores the intersection of digital humanities (DH) and inclusive urbanization across 12 countries, analyzing how DH methodologies address social inequities in rapidly urbanizing contexts. By examining 37 DH projects implemented between 2021–2024, the research identifies three core mechanisms: data-driven participatory planning, digital cultural preservation, and accessible knowledge mobilization. Findings reveal that DH tools enhance marginalized communities’ agency in urban development, though effectiveness varies by national digital infrastructure and policy frameworks. The paper concludes with a framework for integrating DH into urban governance to promote equitable growth.
