In recent years, the whole world has faced an enormous increase in disinformation and hoaxes, which spread extremely quickly and efficiently in the digital globalised world. Moreover, according to statistics, people, especially the youth, are spending more time in the online space using social media.<\/p>

In order to not to become victims of conspiracies and misinformation, it is essential that they acquire several competences in the field of critical thinking and media literacies. However, the problem is that school curricula either do not include media education classes at all, or such courses are not effective enough, as the teachers and youth workers themselves do not have the necessary skills. At the same time, media literacies are a dynamically developing field.<\/p>

Adults often become victims of hoaxes even faster, which is very dangerous, as they transfer this type of opinion and attitude to their children or the youth they work with. The growing tendency towards conspiracies and hoaxes greatly polarises societies and directly threatens the stability of democracy and its institutions. Understanding and navigating a huge amount of information and being able to distinguish quality media content from distorted information and disinformation is a necessary skill nowadays.<\/p>

The European Dialogue is aware of this and therefore came up with this Erasmus+ training for youth workers in order to support and improve the media literacies of youth workers, who will subsequently be able to use the acquired knowledge in their daily activities, but especially when working with the youth.<\/p>

This non-formal learning activity was part of the Erasmus+ Accredited projects in the field of youth. Information about European Dialogue’s accreditation is also available on the <\/span>Erasmus+ Dissemination Platform<\/a><\/span><\/span>.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
