As part of the project to integrate media literacy into formal education, media literacy trainer Khatuna Tsikhelashvili has trained more than 20 teachers in Mtskheta. The teachers will use the knowledge acquired during the meeting to teach 10^th graders media literacy as an optional subject. The pupils who choose this class 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.
