The first meeting was held in late September, bringing together 30 participants and 23 partners, including Presscut.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>In recent years we have witnessed political events that have led to a <strong>worsening of democratic standards<\/strong> in some parts of the region, and the increasingly pronounced <strong>apathy<\/strong> and lack of political interest among young people are particularly concerning. The basic element of civic competences is a <strong>high level of media literacy<\/strong> which is necessary for civic reflection of social reality and resilience to negative media phenomena, such as hate speech and fake news.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The purpose of the MELIA Observatory project is to create a <strong>media observatory<\/strong> which aims to increase media literacy, particularly among young people, encourage the questioning of media and media content, and boost political interest. It will represent a <strong>transnational network<\/strong> of relevant participants in the field of media, education and civil society from countries of the Danube region.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The MELIA project (Media Literacy for Active Citizenship and Sustainable Democracy) is co-financed by the European Fund for Regional Development as part of the Transnational Cooperation Programme Intereg V-B Danube. Apart from Presscut, other Croatian entities participating in this project are the Croatian Chamber of Commerce, Algebra University College and Croatian Journalists and Publicists (HNiP).<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Read additional information about the \u00a0<span style=\"color: #3366ff;\"><strong><a style=\"color: #3366ff;\" href=\"http:\/\/www.interreg-danube.eu\/approved-projects\/melia-observatory\">MELIA Observatory<\/a><\/strong><\/span> project and follow our <span style=\"color: #3366ff;\"><strong><a style=\"color: #3366ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/presscut\/\">Facebook<\/a><\/strong> <\/span>page for all news related to this MELIA project!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How to increase media literacy and consequently improve civic competences and boost political interest &#8211; these topics will be explored through the MELIA Observatory project in the next two years.
