Media Literacy: What´s the journalist´s role? 0 Reply

In the networked society the lack of information is not a problem, the problem is the lack of good information, or being able to choose the more accurate one, some say. Media literacy is found important for several reasons. Should journalists and newsrooms have a responsibility to work towards it? If so, who besides journalists should work for it? And how could be done?

With the aim of discussion these are important questions in order to promote a more participatory and well informed society and  in the way to create a more participatory society and well informed, a session on “Media Literacy: What´s the journalist´s role?” will be held next 28 April from 15h00 to 16h30 (London time) in the framework of the cycle “Changing Societies, Changing Journalism: A global discussion on the future of journalism” organised in partnership by the Dialogue Café Association and the Centre for Research and Studies in Sociology of the University Institute of Lisbon (CIES-IUL).
