The project Media Literacy for Democracy (MLFD) focuses on the promotion of an effective media literacy strategy based on the multidisciplinary approach and on the cross-sector cooperation with the aim to tackle disinformation, empower citizens to make informed decisions and protect democratic values. The project was divided into 3 main phases – awareness campaigns, context analysis and stimulation of the debate among citizens and empowerment of communities through a targeted media education.
As the project is planned to finish in April 2024, a final webinar to discuss all project outcomes, key findings and important messages is planned to take place on March 19th 2024. The event will be joined by media experts who will discuss the topics of disinformation and fake news. Representatives of all organisations, part of the project consortium, will also present their experience gathered within the project activities. During the implementation of the project an international e-booklet was created to inform citizens about the negative impact of disinformation on democratic societies and the importance of media literacy in the context of building civil society’s capacity to adopt to the digital era. The booklet will also be presented during the event.
We sincerely invite everyone interested in the topics of the project to attend the webinar. The full agenda and the registration form are now available online.
The Media Literacy for Democracy Project is funded by the European Commission under the CERV Programme.
