Mass media is a powerful force in forming our perception of reality. The recent technological developments have brought profound changes to the way we access and consume information from the various media platforms. Today, most people if not everyone connected to the Internet can post information, pictures, videos and comments which can go viral. This means that they can potentially reach millions of people around the world and influence their attitude to a given issue. The digital revolution can empower but this power comes with great responsibility. In various parts of Europe and neighbouring countries young people face different challenges related to media literacy, i.e. exposure to media bias, hate speech, cyber-bullying, grassroots xenophobia propagated by media and social networks. As such the project objectives are: – to understand how and why media content is produced - to make distinctions between different types of media content (news journalism, propaganda, promotion, entertainment, etc.) - to explore the crucial elements of a reliable journalist’s craft (balance, reliability, usage of proper sources) - to learn to evaluate the reliability of sources and to approach any information critically - to explore the interrelation between media messages and tolerance/intolerance in our societies, especially in regards to the topic of migrant and refugee crisis - to learn how to distinguish between media and audience bias - to promote the core EU values and cooperation under the Erasmus+ programme. The idea of the training course “Enhancing Media Literacy ” is a result of collaboration of youth workers from 13 EU and neighbourhood countries. We would like to carry out this project to empower youth workers and youth activists to become conscious media and news consumers, to apply their critical thinking skills and to contribute to more inclusive and tolerant societies through non-formal education methods. Taking into account the current migrant and refugee crises in Europe, we propose to analyse the role and impact of mass media messages in creating a stereotypical image of a migrant or a new comer.
