TOOL4YOUTH

Coronavirus disease (COVID -19) is the first pandemic in history to use technology and social media on a large scale to keep people safe, informed, productive, and connected. At the same time, the technology we rely on to stay connected and informed is enabling and amplifying an infodemic that continues to undermine the global response and compromise pandemic control measures.

Main goal of the project „TOOL4YOUTH“ is to promote media literacy in the wider community and raise awareness about the false information and how to recognize it. Digital age has made it easy for everyone to place information on the internet without going through fact checking and other information checking tools.

Partners discussed the implementation of project activities and followed up on the results. Evaluation of the first LTT held in Turkey was concluded to be positive and in line with defined goals and expectations. Further, dates of the 2nd LTT which will be held in Bosnia and Herzegovina have been confirmed and preparatory activities and tasks have been discussed.
