Dear readers, today is an extremely special day!
Časoris is celebrating its 10th birthday!
Časoris was launched in 2015 to bring interesting, quality news to children.
I thought that children needed their own newspaper to find out what was happening in the world.
Sonja Merljak Zdovc, founder of Časoris
Since then, Časoris has developed and grown together with you.
Časoris has written about current social issues, scientific discoveries, nature, animals, entertainment, and sports.
Časoris was also interested in climate change, mental health, human rights, and media literacy. We dedicated a special portal to it.
In ten years, Časoris has achieved several milestones to be proud of.
Časoris has received international awards for some projects.
Not even the epidemic stopped us.
During the pandemic, Časoris wrote about the problems, informed you, and exposed disinformation, which was quite an issue at the time.
Last year, Časoris co-founded the Children’s News Europe network, which connects media for children across Europe and the world.
2025 also started off looking promising.
Out of 400 projects submitted, Časoris has won the SozialMarie social innovation award!
You, the young people, have always inspired us for all our important achievements and milestones.
We are very proud of the team of Časoris’ young journalists, who inspire us day after day with excellent journalistic contributions.
Every year, Časoris also dedicates the Faca Leta (Face of the year) event to young people. It’s an opportunity to present your exceptional achievements.
When I hosted the first Faca Leta celebration last year, I felt a great responsibility, but also a great honor. I believe that such recognition is not only a recognition for individuals, but also a message to all young people that they too can make a difference.
Rok Kužner, Časoris’ young journalist
Časoris will celebrate its 10th birthday in style!
Join us on May 9th in the afternoon for children’s workshops at Bistro Čad in Ljubljana, Slovenia.
