On May 22nd, Eileen Culloty delivered the keynote address to the eTwinnings Ireland National Conference on media literacy and disinformation. eTwinning is the EU's online community platform for schools in Europe. Since 2005, eTwinning has promoted media literacy and the integration of digital tools and languages in everyday teachers’ and students’ lives. Media literacy and disinformation are the themes for the 2021 programme.
In her keynote address, Eileen discussed insights gained from the Provenance project on countering disinformation and the need to develop a broader concept of media and digital literacy to counteract current threats.
