Sažetak
Children and children’s rights, are, particularly in this decade, rich opportunity for analysing the different ways of protecting them through ethical use of big data in humanitarian actions, mainly through data collection and various data analysis techniques related to existing international humanitarian agendas and common social good. Humanitarianism, either internationally organized or amateur, is mostly led by human ability and will to help. However, children’s rights are often either partly or totally neglected by disrespecting ethics, humanitarian documents and use of information that are including children’s privacy and/or their health, family, education and other related circumstances. The amount of data in humanitarian actions for children is huge and decision on way how to use that data is directly connected with future portrayal and representation as well as the future of children’s life in need. Protecting children’s rights is one of the major roles of big data and ethics of its use. The main aim of this paper is to show how ethical use of big data should be closely connected with respecting children’s rights according to basic ethics postulates, existing international humanitarian agendas and data literacy. Role of ethics, in this context, is one of the only ways of providing children all the help they need without future labelling, consequences, secondary victimization or any other kind of their inappropriate future representation. Another aim of this paper is also to, through detailed literature review, explain how humanitarianism and unethical use of big data can bring children to totally opponent context where receiving help could lead to multiple consequences for their personality and overall growing up, but also, with following of basic data literacy rules, help and improve their quality of lives and open many opportunities for future, especially after humanitarian action context. This paper will also present some basic guidelines for effective use of previously mentioned methods in humanitarian actions aimed for helping children and simultaneously contribute to the development of data literacy in humanitarianism.
