Within the framework of the project, which will cover the months of September-December, training, practical, and interactive sessions are planned to be organized on press history and new media, as well as on the topic of media literacy, with the participation of over 500 young people from more than 10 regions.
The goal of the project is to increase the knowledge of young people, who are more likely to be exposed to the impact of harmful information as active social media users, in the field of modern media and communication, to improve their skills on the topic of media literacy, and to strengthen awareness and solidarity in the fight against disinformation.
