We are entering in a new chapter of how humans consume and relate to information. When we learned how to capture the light and record it, it changed the world. Photographs are used to capture the world around us. The evolution of the moving image and its uses in the connected world is taking unexpected turn towards the foggy territory of deception and confusion. We're gonna have to navigate this chapter carefully. We're gonna have to push even harder to know where the images came from, who made them and for what purpose. And we're gonna have to resist the urge to believe everything we see. We are entering the era in which the artificial intelligence is generating content that seems human-made and is making it easy for nearly anyone to create news. AI is making it easy for anyone to create propaganda outlets, producing content that can be hard to differentiate from real news, spurring an explosion of web content mimicking factual articles that instead disseminates false information. More research is needed to better understand how to properly assess the risks posed by artificial intelligence and how to tackle them, but it is crucial to increase media literacy among average readers. Media literacy is undoubtedly a crucial tool in the fight against disinformation. A public that is both critically and digitally literate is much more likely to be able to assess the information they encounter online, to identify sources they can trust, and make well-informed decisions as citizens, consumers, and more. Being media literate opens up opportunities to engage more fully and more creatively with the online (and offline) media world. Media literacy can empower young people to better understand media and make better decisions about what they are viewing and why. Learning to identify practical markers of different types of information is a good way for young people to become more conscious information consumers who can make these distinctions more readily in the future. The project aimed to strengthen media literacy, critical thinking and responsible digital participation among young people from Malta, Italy, Serbia and Türkiye. It responded to the growing need to help young people navigate today’s information environment, where news, images, videos, advertisements, social media content and AI-generated materials can easily be manipulated or presented in a misleading way. Through the project, we wanted to empower young people to become more conscious and critical media users, able to question what they see, verify sources, recognise fake news and misinformation, and understand how media messages can influence opinions, emotions and behaviour. Special attention was given to visual manipulation, stereotypes, clickbait, emotional language, online communication and the possible risks connected with artificial intelligence. In accordance with the above, and in line with the planned activities, the project achieved the following objectives: - Develop media understanding and critical thinking competences, helping participants question what they see, read and share online. - Increase awareness of media-related issues among young people and local communities, especially fake news, misinformation, disinformation, clickbait, stereotypes, visual manipulation and AI-generated content. - Improve communication skills, especially participants’ discussion skills, active listening, respectful debate and ability to express opinions in an international group. - Develop young people’s intercultural learning skills and behaviours through cooperation among participants from different countries. - Improve international network and communication among young people and partner organisations. - Raise awareness about each other’s cultures, traditions, media realities and social contexts. - Develop skills to critically analyse media and transmitted information, including sources, headlines, images, videos, advertisements and online content. - Boost networking among young people and encourage them to become active multipliers of media literacy in their communities through campaigns, dissemination activities and follow-up workshops.
