Feedback
We saw how the media can give us the wrong idea about a topic and how it is our job to not believe everything we read or are told. We were able to navigate through the different types of media and see sources of wrong or incomplete information in order to avoid them. We were given tools to balance consequences and causes in their decision making so that all parts are taken into account to facilitate achieving a good decision. We could reflect about their lives or projects using this within these workshops and the people participating in them. In summary, it was a week full of personal and collective work to increase awareness of media literacy and critical thinking in a non formal environment.
