New technologies are changing the ways we speak, act, learn, interact with each other, and even see ourselves. Beyond pure digital skills, emotional and social skills associated with safely navigating the information and media world are necessary to fully benefit from technological developments. The Youth Time International Movement (YTIM) is convinced that media and information literacy is providing all those necessary 21st century skills. It also constitutes a key factor to enable citizens to make informed decisions. It’s no secret that news consumers have developed some bad habits. People gravitate towards platforms that only share news the audience wants to hear to avoid cognitive dissonance, share stories after only reading their headlines, and incline to content that outrages or entertains them. It’s not only consumers or audiences that are to blame. Although the media have an important role in modern societies as a main source of information that can influence political and social events, as well as shape public opinion, it is not uncommon they promote some topics or persons, are being manipulated, and create biased or distorted content. Media producers may help spread biased content, and aggregators may use mysterious algorithms boosting questionable content. There are also other sources of information and content creators assuming the role of traditional media, and many media consumers are becoming prosumers (producers and consumers at the same time). However, they are often even more prone to manipulation. Given all these imperfections of the media landscape, how is it possible to tackle misinformation? How to foster good information consumption and production habits? How to restore trust in journalism working daily on public’s behalf? The answer is media and information literacy education (MIL) for all three groups: content creators, consumers, and prosumers. And youth work in this field is a powerful tool for achievement of the vision behind the presented project: a media and information literate society, where people can verify, decode, and contextualize media and information; think critically and are aware of different media manipulation practices; and where content creators (especially media makers) are fair, independent, and responsible. The project “Media and Information Literacy Training: How to Live in a Transforming Digital World” will not only be a perfect chance for youth workers to take part in an interactive and professional training focusing on MIL, with particular focus on digital and social media, but also a great example of transnational collaboration in Europe. The whole project will be media-oriented, combine online and offline events, and engage youth as much as possible through interactive and informative sessions. It’s objectives are the following: 1) Raise professional competences of youth workers from involved countries to provide quality MIL education to consumers, producers, and prosumers of media and various digital content; 1.1) Develop or enhance MIL and critical thinking of youth workers, as it's crucial that they have relevant competences, including ability to recognize fake and distorted news and understand the psychological mechanisms behind people’s inclination to those news, in order to be able to deliver quality youth work in the field of MIL; 1.2) Contribute to increased public MIL and critical thinking of youth (whether they are consumers, producers, or prosumers); 2) Exchange good practices/methods in critical thinking and MIL, and develop new resources; 3) Test new methods in the field of MIL through gamified approach; 4) Create an international network of active youth workers from diverse European countries. During one training, the project will bring together youth workers active inside and beyond the partner organisations, both who already focus on MIL and media or content production (experienced) and who are interested in getting engaged in these topics (newcomers). The concrete topics will be for example content analysis, information verification, critical thinking, AI in media making, work with data, journalistic ethics and social responsibility, but also the development of non-formal education events. In addition to that, online competition on twitter-length news will be held before the training. It’s the combination of various topics and elements that makes the project stand out, as trainings on MIL are usually focusing on one segment only (e.g. fake news or data literacy) and don't include activities beyond onsite events. The participants representing different nationalities and professional backgrounds will learn a lot from each other and experts. Their knowledge will be solidified through production of new MIL materials and methods (to be published as OER). The project will contribute to the development and sustainability of quality youth work, and ultimately to improved media and information literacy-related competences of young people.
