Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic beginning in 2020 has forced national governments to take extreme measures to contain the spread of the infection. At the same time, closed borders, measures of isolation and social distancing have become an incentive for the modernization and development of new technologies in human life. Digitalization and distance services, including online education, remote working, as well as information and communication technologies, are accelerating the process of integrating technological and social systems and changing the socio-political landscape, where global interaction is transforming, including the increasing role of international organizations. Already beginning to improve its activities ISESCO has great technological opportunities for transformations in the post-covid period to develop human capital and support intercultural dialogue. Today this issue is very important for this organization.
