TOOL4YOUTH
An infodemic is an overabundance of information, both online and offline. It is a deliberate attempt to spread false information in order to undermine the public health response and promote alternative agendas by groups or individuals. Misinformation and disinformation can harm people's physical and mental health, increase stigma, jeopardize valuable health gains, and lead to poor adherence to public health interventions, reducing their effectiveness and jeopardizing countries' ability to stop the pandemic. Misinformation costs lives. Without the necessary confidence and the right information, diagnostic tests will go unused, vaccination campaigns (or campaigns to promote effective vaccines) will not achieve their goals, and the virus will continue to spread.
Moreover, disinformation polarizes public debate on issues related to COVID -19, amplifies hate speech, increases the risk of conflict, violence and human rights abuses, and threatens the long-term prospects for promoting democracy, human rights and social cohesion.
The main objectives are:
• to increase awareness on what news are fake, which resources are not trustworthy
• to create a common consciousness to change the societies habits on believing in everything they hear or read
• to promote EU funding projects to wider community.
• to raise awareness to youth education and its deep effects at local, national and international level.
• to enhance media literacy skills of youth
• to improve design thinking, creativity, adaptability, resilience, and even empathy.
• to develop communication, team-work, digital literacy, analyzing, research skills.
• to create innovative ideas, questioning and problem solving skills.
• to reach 2000 people with our project and make awareness to wider community.
• to hand in our production result e toolkit – comic strip to 1000 people.
• to reach 100 people with Multiplier Event at local and national level,
• to reach 1000 person with our project website, social media, YouTube, Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, Erasmus Project Results Platform, EPALE, partners' official website, visual and printed media, stands.
• to reach 1000 people with our workshops, symposia, online webinars, meetings, seminars, peer-to-peer activities
