ComCom Trains 30 Teachers in Gori as Part of the Project to Integrate Media Literacy into Formal Education

As part of the project to integrate media literacy into formal education, the Communications Commission has held a training for teachers in Gori. The seminar was led by media literacy trainer Ani Gvetadze, who introduced the teaching module to the participants. The meeting was attended by around 30 teachers who will be teaching the subject of media literacy in schools.

The project to integrate media literacy into formal education began in 2022, and serves to introduce an optional subject for 10th graders. The pupils will study under the guidance of trained teachers for one semester and learn about media literacy, media and information language, information processing and disinformation.

The Communications Commission, in close cooperation with the Ministry of Education and Science of Georgia, is implementing the “Integration of Media Literacy into Formal Education” project, which is funded by UNICEF. The project will offer training to a total of 500 teachers from every region of Georgia.
