Developing media literacy skills in young people - a new phase of cooperation between UNICEF and the Georgian Charter of Journalistic Ethics
15.05.2019

Category : Announcement;
In the modern world, where the information flow is constantly growing, society has to develop the right skills to identify the reliability of information. Media literacy has been gaining more importance in Georgia, as only a society that is media literate and has the capacity to think critically will manage to defend itself from misinformation. This is the main goal of fostering media literacy in young people in Georgia.

As part of this work, the Charter will also announce an award for in-depth coverage of children’s issues. At the end of 2019, a special jury will reveal a winner who will be awarded a prize from UNICEF and the Charter.
