EU Youth Strategy emphasises the need for equipping youth with digital skills and fostering critical thinking and media literacy. The strategy states that digital technologies have revolutionised young people’s lives in many ways and policies need to consider both opportunities and challenges, by tapping the potential of social media, equipping youth with digital skills and fostering critical thinking and media literacy.
Abiliity to find information and analyse and understand the diverse world of MIL are essential skills for the civic society. Also, skills to create information, work with the media and act based on reliable and evidence based information are important to ensure democratic participation.
