Throwback to the latest #ChangingTIDE Media Literacy Incubator in Tartu, Estonia 🇪🇪 Organised by @ICDS_Tallinn 👇

[ICDS Tallinn @ICDS_Tallinn]

A week ago in Tartu, enthusiastic young people met to brainstorm ideas on how to strengthen our resilience against disinformation.

At the #ChangingTIDE Media Literacy Incubator, participants explored disinformation and media influence, propaganda and information attacks, as well as the policies and practical tools needed to counter them.

In a rapidly changing information environment, understanding how influence works and how to respond effectively matters more than ever. Thank you to all the participants and our partners!
