This collaboration with AFM is held in partnership with the Ford Foundation, an American foundation aiming at advancing human welfare.
The Media Literacy workshop is scheduled to take place on MIU campus from January 21st to January 24th, 2024. It will be attended by 10 students from different MIU faculties, as well as 10 students from other universities.
The primary goal of the workshop is to provide students with a comprehensive understanding of various types of media and the ability to differentiate between them. Additionally, students will learn about the latest trends in new media and the challenges they present. The workshop will also provide students with strategies for identifying and avoiding common errors, all while adhering to ethical standards and guidelines set by the media industry.
