NATIONAL CONFERENCE "MEDIA LITERACY AGAINST DISINFORMATION"
The conference will be held on December 2, 2021 in a hybrid format, with only speakers and participants in the discussions will be physically present in the conference room, and everyone else will be able to watch and join in real time online on the Facebook page of the Coalition for Media Literacy.
In 2021, the conference focused on the development of lifelong media literacy as a countermeasure against disinformation campaigns. During the conference, current projects for the development of media literacy through and outside the education system will be presented, covering from the youngest to the oldest citizens of Bulgaria.
What are the problems and possible solutions, as well as what are the best approaches when working with each group, will be discussed by representatives of the civil sector, media, government institutions and business in the three thematic panel discussions of the event:
Media misinformation and its consequences
Media literacy in every subject live and online
Media literacy and lifelong learning
Special guests of the event are Martina Chapman [Media Literacy Ireland] and Christina de Brown [UNICEF in Bulgaria]. You will be able to hear their speeches immediately after the official opening of the conference.
The discussions will be moderated by: Vesislava Antonova (Manager magazine, National Council for Journalistic Ethics), Maria Cheresheva (Association of European Journalists-Bulgaria, Darik Radio) and Yana Peeva (Teen Station).
