The idea of the training course “Enhancing Media Literacy, Critical Thinking ” is a result of collaboration of youth workers from 8 EU and neighbourhood countries. We would like to carry out this project to empower youth workers and youth activists to become conscious media and news consumers, to apply their critical thinking skills and to contribute to more inclusive and tolerant societies through non-formal education methods. Taking into account the current migrant and refugee crises in Europe, we propose to analyse the role and impact of mass media messages in creating a stereotypical image of a migrant or a new comer.
