nicoleta susanu's insight:

The call for proposals to monitor, prevent and counter hate speech online will support the following priorities:

- Projects aimed at development, studies and analyses of the sociological landscape and trends on hate speech online;

- Projects on developing online alternative and counter-narratives and promoting the development of critical thinking by Internet users;

- Projects aimed at countering illegal hate speech online on social platforms/Internet companies (As defined under national laws transposing the Council Framework Decision 2008/913/JHA, on combating certain forms and expressions of racism and xenophobia by means of criminal law) and enhancing transparency on how manifestations of hate speech are addressed in the online world.

Proposals building on the activities relating to the implementation of the Code of Conduct on countering hate speech online are of particular interest.

Projects aimed at research and analysis of the sociological landscape relating to the origin and spread of hate speech on social media platforms are expected to build on prior studies and focus on analysis (including through the quantitative analysis of publicly available datasets) of current or new trends of forms of intolerance online and its path of dissemination, such as extremist ideas leading to violence or hatred against minorities.

H2020 call for proposal Ethical/Societal Dimension Topic 3: Better understanding the role of new social media networks and their use for public security purposes | EU FUNDING OPPORTUNITIES  AND PROJECT MANAGEMENT TIPS | Scoop.it

nicoleta susanu's insight:

Scope:

This topic shall look at the role and purpose of social media and the relationship between the new social networks and public security. Research to be coordinated by this activity may focus on analysing the following issues:

  • To what extent are social media likely to influence public security planning?
  • Shall the adoption of social media across the public security community be treated as a threat or a tool for public security purposes?
  • Shall the potential of social networking tools be explored by public security agencies for example in order to predict future trends or identify possible threats?
  • To which extent, in the age of the connected society, are social media used in the eve of urban violence and riots? How can the understanding of the different social media influence on the populations lead to the shaping of new forms of policing in the public space?
  • What are the ethical and legal implications, for instance with reference to the respect for fundamental rights, of public agencies using social media information for security planning purposes?

Special attention should be paid to ethical privacy and data protection aspects.
