Content in Motion | Curating Europe’s Audiovisual Heritage Conference, December 3-4 2015; www.euscreenxl2015.eu
The teaching of film literacy is an “uncommon and sporadic practice”. This was the answer of 62% of the 6,701 teachers who participated in a European-wide survey. Only 5% teachers answered it is a “widespread and common practice”. Why is the teaching of film literacy not more widespread? Especially since having access to equipment is no longer a barrier and film and television have a major impact on the way young people see and understand the world. This session tries to see why moving images are not used more and what can be done. It will do so by looking into current practices, presenting potential use cases, and identifying learning objectives that can only be reached by using moving images.

Europeana meeting under Finland’s Presidency of the Council of the EU - Day 2...Europeana
Here are a few approaches to address the context demand challenge for machine translation of cultural heritage content:
- Leverage knowledge graphs and ontologies to disambiguate terms based on conceptual relationships
- Train domain-specific models on large cultural heritage corpora to capture nuances of language use in different contexts
- Perform multi-task learning to optimize models for both translation accuracy and conceptual mapping between languages
- Allow users to provide feedback to iteratively improve disambiguation of ambiguous terms over time
- Develop specialized interfaces that surface contextual clues from objects to help machine translation
The goal is to mimic how humans understand intended meaning based on surrounding context clues. Combining linguistic and conceptual techniques can help machines do the same.

This document discusses multilingualism in digital cultural heritage. It begins by outlining some of the challenges of multilingual access, including mismatches between user queries and content languages, heterogeneity in queries, and issues with translating metadata. It then discusses some options for bridging the language gap, such as translating queries, content, and metadata; enriching metadata; and adapting systems to better support multilingual exploration. While progress has been made, areas that still need work include improving machine translation for small languages and specialized domains, evaluating solutions, and developing multilingual entity graphs to aid exploration.

The document discusses the Culturalia.ro platform, a digital library and national shared catalog in Romania that functions similarly to Europeana. It notes that the platform allows both institutions and the general public to contribute content, but that some data requires access controls due to varying levels of competence and permissions. The access controls establish a hierarchy of authorities and reading/writing permission levels from 0-9 to manage who can view or edit which resources. Intellectual responsibility is also important, as the platform allows public comments on statements while maintaining provenance of ingested legacy and imported metadata.

This document discusses several topics related to AI and digital culture including metadata enrichment, machine learning, deep neural networks, supervised learning, datasets, crowd and machine intelligence, and semantic enrichment. Metadata can be enriched through manual and automatic processes including machine learning. Machine learning algorithms use sample training data to make predictions while deep neural networks and supervised learning use labeled input-output datasets. Large annotated datasets are needed to train machine learning models and crowdsourcing can be used to obtain this data. Crowd and machine intelligence can cooperate by using crowdsourced labels to train models and models to validate labels. Semantic enrichment involves mapping metadata to controlled vocabularies using tools like those developed by EKT to normalize values.

The Finnish National Gallery has adopted an open access policy to share digital images of its collections online through its own website and Europeana. It began by sharing archival materials in 2012 under Creative Commons licenses. In 2018, it launched sharing over 12,000 high-resolution images from its art collections with a CC0 license on both its website and Europeana. This was the result of collaboration between the Gallery and Europeana to improve access to the collections online. The open access policy aims to make the collections, which belong to the Finnish people, more accessible to wider audiences and to support education, research, and creative reuse. It has been positively received as responding to audience needs and expectations.

This report explores the significance of border towns and spaces for strengthening responses to young people on the move. In particular it explores the linkages of young people to local service centres with the aim of further developing service, protection, and support strategies for migrant children in border areas across the region. The report is based on a small-scale fieldwork study in the border towns of Chipata and Katete in Zambia conducted in July 2023. Border towns and spaces provide a rich source of information about issues related to the informal or irregular movement of young people across borders, including smuggling and trafficking. They can help build a picture of the nature and scope of the type of movement young migrants undertake and also the forms of protection available to them. Border towns and spaces also provide a lens through which we can better understand the vulnerabilities of young people on the move and, critically, the strategies they use to navigate challenges and access support.
The findings in this report highlight some of the key factors shaping the experiences and vulnerabilities of young people on the move – particularly their proximity to border spaces and how this affects the risks that they face. The report describes strategies that young people on the move employ to remain below the radar of visibility to state and non-state actors due to fear of arrest, detention, and deportation while also trying to keep themselves safe and access support in border towns. These strategies of (in)visibility provide a way to protect themselves yet at the same time also heighten some of the risks young people face as their vulnerabilities are not always recognised by those who could offer support.
In this report we show that the realities and challenges of life and migration in this region and in Zambia need to be better understood for support to be strengthened and tuned to meet the specific needs of young people on the move. This includes understanding the role of state and non-state stakeholders, the impact of laws and policies and, critically, the experiences of the young people themselves. We provide recommendations for immediate action, recommendations for programming to support young people on the move in the two towns that would reduce risk for young people in this area, and recommendations for longer term policy advocacy.
