Participating Countries: Germany, Ukraine, Russia
Project Partners: Kharkiv Regional Youth Non-Governmental Organisation “Enlightening Initiative”, Academy of innovation, CGE Erfurt e.V.

Young people in Germany, Ukraine and Russia are getting more exposed to radicalisation as the outcome of the tense geopolitical situation between the countries, the general trend of re-discovery of nationalism in Europe and the rise of fake news globally. Media outlets especially contribute to this process, using negative narratives to confuse and polarise young minds. The partner consortium of CGE Erfurt e.V., NGO “Englightening Inititiave” and social initiative “Academy of Innovation” have particularly realised that after evaluating the participants’ responses from another common Erasmus+ project “We are the Peacemakers!”. Therefore, to combat the overwhelming tendency of media influence on youth, the partners organisations, after consulting with the group leaders, propose a series of media camps for young people to train their critical thinking in decoding media algorithms behind screaming headlines, catching posters or dubious articles/post in the Internet.
