About SiFKal - Target Group

Our main goal is to orientate the process of education and to inform, to advice and to give ideas how to use the Internet in a safer way. It is directed to all social agents involved in the education tasks of the European citizens of tomorrow. Furthermore it will be directed as well to people, who have not much experience with Internet in their common life.

According to the above, we have selected four target groups to whom the objectives, the products and the processes are focused:

Parents, Teachers, Local Authorities and Librarians.

Parents are responsible for the children's access to Internet at home. We think that the parents need recommendations, advice and ideas to help their children during the first steps in, what for most parents, is a new medium.

As the nature of knowledge and warrants for truth change fast, Teachers have the responsibility to use the Internet in a clearly educational way, without promoting myths, and false hopes, and apart from commercial interests.

Local Authorities and other local agencies can take an important role in the introduction of community services related to the use of the Internet. In fact a considerable part of those services like digital networks are actually in charge of the local authorities.

Librarians, in a complementary position to the other target groups, are placed between parents, teachers and local authorities. With the emergence of the 'hybrid library', libraries become more concerned regarding where to get information and where to participate in cultural activities and performances and where to interact with others engaging in those activities.
