The Twenty-Ninth General Conference of UNESCO in adopting Draft Resolution 61,
approved that, for its programme in 1998-1999, support for media education and the
creation of media space for young people should be ensured through different modalities
and actions. These actions are based on a number of different events and documents of
UNESCO and its Member States, notably the “Grünwald Declaration on Media Education”
(1982) and the Toulouse Colloquy “New Directions in Media Education” (1990).
