ODISSEI Lunch Lecture: The robot or the brain? Building a classifier for visual news frames of Artificial Intelligence
On Tuesday 6 December between 12-13 hrs, dr. Irina Lock (University of Amsterdam) will give an online Lunch Lecture on the framing of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in online media images.

FAIRsharing for the social sciences: What’s in it for me?
FAIRsharing works to make FAIR resources (developed by the research community) available to researchers and research data practitioners from a single interface. The aim of this blogpost is to describe the purpose and structure of FAIRsharing. We think this resource might be very useful for social scientists, for instance when writing their Data Management Plan (DMP).
CBS – ODISSEI Microdata Meeting – Energy Poverty in Figures
On 23 February, the next online Microdata Meeting will take place, with a presentation of Lydia Geijtenbeek (Statistics Netherlands) on ‘Energy Poverty in Figures’.
Statistics Netherlands has created a file that describes energy poverty in the Netherlands through 4 different indicators. During her presentation, Geijtenbeek will show how these data have been constructed, how they can be used for social research, and how the already available data can be used to estimate the current levels of energy poverty.
