Action Coalition for Media Literacy represents a very rich resource on media education. Free of any funding from Big Media, it is an emerging global coalition run by and for media educators, a network that champions a three-part mission:
1. Teaching media education knowledge and skills – through keynotes, workshops, trainings, and institutes – to children and adults so that they can become more critical media consumers and more active participants in our democracy;
2. Supporting media reform – No matter what one’s cause, media reform is crucial for the success of that cause, and since only those who are media-educated support media reform, media education must be a top priority for all citizens and activists;
3. Democratizing our media system through education and activism.
