View it in your browser [image: Centre for Social Informatics] [image: Faculty of Social Sciences] CSI Newsletter News from the Centre for Social Informatics, Faculty of Social Sciences (UL) Dear colleagues, Welcome to the first issue of the Centre for Social Informatics (CSI) newsletter. CSI has more than 20 members and it is one of the largest research centres at the Faculty of Social Sciences of the University of Ljubljana . CSI was established in 2011, with the aim of advancing conceptual and applied research across social domains where people interact with internet technologies. This newsletter will provide platform and an opportunity to share with you our research activities, recent events, projects, scientific publications and other news. Our activities are strongly related to the field of social informatics. This means that the CSI research team is involved in a diverse array of projects that study the role of internet technologies in contemporary society. Accordingly, the CSI researchers have been engaged in areas of research and expertise dealing with social science methodology, web services, user experiences, better internet, the internet society, digital inequality, active and healthy ageing, etc. Over the years, CSI researchers have made a strong contribution to the field of web survey methodology. We established the WebSM portal that has been internationally recognised as the main information source on the methodology of web surveys and other internet-based survey methods. We have also developed an open-source web survey tool, 1KA - OneClickSurvey . 1KA provides full support for all stages of web survey implementation and already has more than 46,000 registered users. Our researchers also coordinate the Safer Internet Centre . Currently, the project is co-funded by the European Union's Connecting Europe Facility and the Ministry of Public Administration of the Republic of Slovenia. The Safer Internet Centre includes three components: ? The Awareness Centre, Safe.si , which raises the awareness of children, youngsters, parents and teachers on how to stay safe online; ? The helpline, Tom telefon , which is intended to assist children and youngsters who are in distress about the internet and mobile devices; ? The hotline, Spletno oko , which enables internet users to anonymously report hate speech and images of child sexual abuse found on the internet. Another field in which we are internationally recognised is active healthy ageing. We have participated and coordinated several projects, dealing with structural barriers for the uptake of ICT-based services for independent living of older adults at home. At present, we participate in the Interreg Europe project, ITHACA , with the ambition of accelerating the scaling up of smart health and care innovation that can support active and healthy living and secure the triple win of economic growth, more sustainable health and care systems as well as the improved wellbeing of Europe's citizens. You are kindly invited to read more about our recent work and achievements as well as to share this newsletter with your colleagues.

Working in close cooperation with the police, internet service providers (ISPs), and other governmental and non-governmental organisations in Slovenia, the main mission of Spletno oko is to reduce the number of images of child sexual abuse and online hate speech. This year we celebrate the tenth anniversary of Spletno oko and according to that, we organised the seventh conference titled ?E-child abuse; yesterday, today and tomorrow?. More than 250 people attended the conference, which included lectures addressing the topics of sexual abuse as a criminal offence, interviewing an alleged victim of abuse and taking a step further in the discussion of online abuses.
