ARENAS was recently featured in a news story on the Media Literacy Ireland website in an article written by WP7 leader, Denise Callan of Momentum Educate and Innovate. Media Literacy Ireland(MLI) is an informal alliance of individuals and organisations who work together, mainly on a voluntary basis, to promote media literacy in Ireland. Facilitated by Coimisiún na Meán, Ireland’s media regulator, MLI has over 250 members, drawn from a broad range of sectors.
Its vision is for all Irish people to be empowered with the skills and confidence to be able to access and critically evaluate content and services across all platforms, understand and question how media and digital technology operate, identify and manage risks, and participate in the public sphere in a responsible, ethical and effective manner.
The article outlined the work and objectives of ARENAS, the role of Irish partner Momentum Innovate and Educate in the consortium and how the work of the project is particularly pertinent in the run-up to European elections in June.
