BUPNET EU

MILES Project Kickoff

The MILES Project has officially started! Representatives from 11 partner organisations coming from 10 European countries gathered in Palermo at the end of March to meet and to agree on the terms of the cooperation which will continue until the end of 2026.

The Forward Looking Project will focus on three methodologies in particular:

  • Media and Information Literacy (MIL),
  • Pre-bunking
  • and Data Literacy,

Its goals include:

  • To develop innovative approaches tailored to the educational context.
  • To intervene in both ITE and CPD to equip current and future teachers with the necessary skills to address the complexities of the online environment.
  • To enhance teachers’, students’, and families’ awareness and preparedness to tackle fake news and disinformation, focusing on strategies for identifying and countering misinformation.
  • To foster collaboration among educational stakeholders, policymakers, and relevant organizations to integrate digital literacy initiatives into educational curricula effectively.
  • To ensure the sustainability and scalability of the project outcomes, enabling them to be transferred to different educational contexts and audiences.

Stay tuned for the first research results coming from the project soon!
