Assistant Professor Rittossa on social risks of technology-based measures to fight COVID -19 epidemic
#PRAVRI researchers have redirected their scientific efforts towards the issues arising as a result of the COVID-19 epidemic and related changes in the social life of different communities.
In collaboration with colleagues from several other EU Member States, Assistant Professor Dalida Rittossa draws attention to the need to achieve the proper balance between the positive actions based on technology to fight the pandemic and the protection of individual human rights and fulfilment of special needs of the vulnerable groups such as children, victims of family violence and persons with mental health difficulties. Her presentation titled “Life in the time of COVID-19 – Social implications on the security and well-being of vulnerable groups in the European context” was part of the online conference What have we learned and done so far: social, medical and educational aspect of the COVID-19 pandemic (ICT-20 @ COVID-19) organised by the Croatian Society for Information, Communication and Electronic Technology – MIPRO on 27 and 28 May 2020.

The Dean's position on minority languages during the COVID-19 epidemic
The PRAVRI Dean Prof. Dr. Vesna Crnić-Grotić, in her capacity of the Chair of the Committee of Experts of the European Charter for Regional or Minority Languages, has expressed concern, in an interview at the end of April, about the widespread absence of regional or minority languages from official information and communication about COVID-19.
She underlined that, according to the Charter, regional or minority languages should be used in all contexts and, therefore, that authorities should also actively use regional or minority languages in their response to the pandemic. In particular, it should be borne in mind that COVID-19 patients would feel even more isolated if they were not able to communicate with healthcare staff in their language.
