Talking about Research Integrity …
Everyone agrees that research integrity is important. It refers to maintaining trust in science. But what does this imply for researchers? And how can we ensure research integrity in practice?
Children and the Digital Environment
Technologies are spreading into all aspects of our lives via smart devices, internet of things, augmented reality and data profiling. Children’s lives have become digital by default, with digital technologies the taken-for-granted means of playing, seeing family, doing schoolwork, hanging out with friends in a post-COVID world. But where does the digital begin and end, what does it include?

Our timeline for year 1 – Conceptualisation
With the start of the year, the CO:RE project has picked up speed. Read more about our first steps and aims for year 1 here.
We’ve got an announcement to make…
On 16 January 2020, the CO:RE project members met at the European Leibniz Office in Brussels for the first time, kicking off a three-year project to create a comprehensive knowledge platform on children and youth online.
About CO:RE
Children and young people go online virtually every day. International data on children and online media is extensive, heterogeneous and partly contradictory.
Our aim is to create a comprehensive pan-European knowledge platform with the participation of international researchers, educators, policy makers and concerned dialogue groups. Providing an overview of the research situation, enabling access to empirical data, distributing policy recommendations and offering resources for education lie at the heart of our work.
Structure of the Project
The work of the CO:RE consortium is structured in eleven distinct work packages (WPs) over the project duration of three years (2020-2022).
Thereby, the objectives, tasks and deliverables within the WPs are closely interlinked to achieve the CO:RE project goals. WPs 1 and 10 support and coordinate the overall project framework.
Functions
Within the next three years the CO:RE poject will establish a multifunctional knowledge platform. Discover more about our functions & services we are planning.
