On 11 December 2018 in Brussels, EAVI hosted a conversation, the Art of Living with the Media. The aim of the day was to explore the future of media literacy and global citizenship, and to present a new perspective for media literacy with a new framework for the future, developed by EAVI. The format of the day was structured around this new concept with relevant content to further explain this new line of thinking. The day began with opening remarks by EAVI’s Secretary General, Paolo Celot, who explained the motivations and the new direction for EAVI. He highlighted the need to move beyond media literacy and look towards developing the art of living with the media. In this respect, media literacy does not just about logical, critical thinking, it is about mindfulness and awareness. You can read a full report of the day on the EAVI website.
