 Programme    Report

Weak media literacy fuels disinformation and populism worldwide, yet discourse on the topic usually centers on Western Europe and the US. Our session broadens the scope of the discourse by exploring both Eastern Europe‘s challenges and media literacy solutions.

Featuring insights from Lithuania and Ukraine, we showcase two exceptional projects working to promote media literacy to dismantle populism, reinforce journalism, and enhance civic participation. Attendees will explore actionable, innovative strategies and best practices, offering insights and inspiration for improving media literacy worldwide.
