The Fourth Media Literacy Days organised by the Agency for Electronic Media and UNICEF, under the auspices of the Ministry of Culture and Media and the Ministry of Science and Education, drew great interest from citizens, teaching staff, children and young people. This year’s focus was on the effect that media and digital platforms have on young people’s mental health, but also on the burning issue of disinformation. In more than 260 online or live events that took place in 115 towns in all counties in April, there were opportunities to improve participants’ own media literacy and learn about media and the effect of media on the way we feel.
