Think Critically Act Logically

Training Course

15-24 June 2022 | Varna (Kranevo), Bulgaria

Main aim of the project is to contribute to preventing the intolerance and discrimination caused by fake news and disinformation in social media and beyond by the youth work in the participating organizations and countries/communities.

Dear All,

We are glad to invite you to participate in an international training course about combating fake news called “Think Critically, Act Logically”. This training will provide you with quality professional education and place to meet and work together with 32 youth workers from 7 European countries – Armenia, Georgia, Greece, Romania, Portugal, Ukraine and Bulgaria. We are confident that all this group diversity and experience with the support of great trainers will lead to 8 days of learning, exchange of ideas and experiences, making contacts, partnership building, networking … and a lot of fun.

Hosting organisation

The organizer of the training course is “Youth movement for the development of the rural areas in Bulgaria” /YMDRAB/. We are a non-governmental organisation created in 2009 which works to benefit of the
Bulgarian rural youth. Our main goals are to assist and encourage the free citizens' initiative of young people in rural areas and to support their personal development. In this regard, media literacy and tolerance are one of the important directions that YMDRAB is prioritizing.

The objectives of the training course are:

• explore and promote the tools (digital and offline), activities and methodologies to combat the fake news and disinformation
• develop participants' competencies, in media literacy and critical thinking to analyze and evaluate the impact of media images and messages on youth work and society
• Promote intercultural diversity competencies and understanding among the participants and in their communities
• carry out and disseminate educational toolbox for youth workers for combating fake news in their communities via follow-ups
• explore further possibilities of projects and cooperation on this topic within the framework of the Erasmus+

At the end of the training course, participants will receive the Youth Pass certificate and will create Europass CV
