Global Media and Information Literacy Week, 24-31 October (A/RES/75/267) is here! 🎉🎊✍️
According to UNESCO official website: "Global Media and Information Literacy Week, commemorated annually, is a major occasion for mobilizing worldwide stakeholders to raise awareness in order to increase national take-up and celebrate the progress achieved towards Media and Information Literacy for All – underlining the importance of this Global Week, celebrated since 2011"
Message from Audrey Azoulay, UNESCO Director-General: "With the spread of rumors and the distortion of facts, the boundary between true and false has become blurred. This is undermining the very foundations of our societies and democracies and putting lives at risk through the propagation of fake cures, the fueling of vaccine conspiracy theories, or the spread of racism and hate speech. In this deluge of information, we need more reference points and more rational thinking. And that is why media and information literacy is such a key skill for the education of 21st-century citizens."
Theme of Global Media and Information Literacy Week this year: “Media and Information Literacy in Digital Spaces: A Collective Global Agenda"
ln my opinion, this Global Media and Information Literacy Week should be celebrated as Global Media and Crypto-Literacy Week by BinanceSquare, parallel to the original. 😇
Let me hear your viewpoint☺️
