As part of Doha Centre for Media Freedom’s commitment to promoting quality journalism and defending media freedom in Qatar, the Arab world and across the globe, the centre has been providing Media and Information Literacy education to over 600 students, empowering them with the ability to consume media effectively and prevent the spread of misinformation.
The centre has developed a flagship MIL programme which has been introduced to around 90 schools in Qatar, as well as a number of other schools across the region. The programme now has 14 full time trainers, including six Qatari nationals, and is conducted in Arabic and English languages for students from primary and secondary schools.
Please find below the link for the MIL report prepared by Doha Center Media Freedom’s website to highlight the MIL Programme achievements in light of the special coverage of World Press Freedom Day celebrations, reports and updates of this important day.
