25 years of @UNESCO’s Information for All Programme #IFAP and its mission is all the more urgent. In #Kyiv, I opened a discussion on how to protect freedom of expression, and to preserve, increase access to, and promote the literacy of information in the #AI and digital age. https://t.co/tyCl45WJPY #IFAP #FreedomOfExpression #DigitalLiteracy #UA

Online violence against girls and young women must not be normalized. @UNESCO is working to make digital spaces safer through #MediaAndInfoLiteracy, helping learners develop the skills to navigate technology safely and responsibly. Safe education must include safe online spaces. #OnlineSafety #GirlsRights #DigitalLiteracy #Thetweetdoesnotmentionanyspecificcountries.Therefore #therearenocountrycodestoreturn.

Children & young people are not disconnected from news; they are getting it through social platforms, creators & algorithm-driven feeds. With the new guide “Growing Up in a Connected World," @UNESCO supports families in helping children navigate news. 🔗 https://t.co/K1XlvXcqOu https://t.co/TLfrlY1X4W #ConnectedWorld #DigitalLiteracy #YouthNews #Nospecificcountriesarementionedinthetweet.

Committee of the Regions (COR) May 7

Evropský výbor regionů vyzval k přijetí přístupu 'bezpečnosti od návrhu', zavedení povinných hodnocení dopadů na práva dětí a posílení role místních a regionálních orgánů v oblasti mediální gramotnosti, přičemž varuje, že digitální prostor není dostatečně bezpečný pro děti a mladé lidi a odpovědnost za tuto situaci by měla padat na platformy a regulátory, nikoli na nezletilé. #ChildSafety #DigitalLiteracy #MediaRegulation
