The aim of the project “Alter Life” is to strengthen the critical thinking and media literacy skills of young people in Lazdijai, Vilkaviškis, Marijampolė and Liudvinavas, following on from the activities of the last three years. Given today's information overload and disinformation challenges, these competences have become particularly important to ensure young people's resilience to misinformation and their active participation in democratic life. The objectives of the project include the development of critical thinking, media and information literacy, raising young people's awareness of the opportunities and dangers of the Internet and social networks, and encouraging communication and cooperation between young people from different communities. It also aims at empowering young people to participate in public life, to become responsible citizens and to provide them with the practical knowledge and skills they need to successfully navigate in today's information society.
