    It was a pleasure to deliver a training session: ‘What is the truth?’ that aimed to enhance critical thinking and literacy against #extremist tendencies using strategic rhetorics. This session was held in the Summer School on media literacy, as the main activity in scope of the regional project ‘Media Literacy Capacity Building for Western Balkans tackling spreading of mis/disinformation’ to which we as Horizon Civitas are partners for 🇲🇰 Macedonia and 🇽🇰Kosova. 🌐More about this project: https://lnkd.in/djR_6f7U 📍Zabljak, 🇲🇪Montenegro 🗓️3-10 September, 2024
