PPE4InfoDem

PPE4InfoDem

The PPE4InfoDem project brings together 5 partners from Italy, Romania, Bulgaria, Portugal and Serbia, including both civil society organizations and municipalities, in a transnational effort to counteract disinformation, reinforce democratic engagement, and promote media literacy. The project responds to growing concern over the use of disinformation and information manipulation to push anti-democratic, populist, and authoritarian narratives in Europe. The goal is to build democratic resilience and active civic participation through media literacy education, critical thinking, and inclusive public engagement. It targets 4 main groups: young people from rural and underserved areas, who will participate in media workshops and co-create podcasts and content for a pan-European awareness campaign; educators and staff of partner organizations, trained in participatory education and media analysis; marginalized groups who will be empowered through tailored trainings and storytelling activities; and the general public and local communities, reached via public events, conferences, and a digital communication campaign. The project will achieve 4 specific objectives: improving media literacy and digital skills; empowering CSOs and communities to recognize disinformation; activating marginalized groups as democratic multipliers; and enhancing cross-border cooperation through exchanges of good practices. These will be reached through 16 events, including international training, national workshops, conferences, and a final event, as well as an online platform.

Key outputs include 5 podcasts, 1 multimedia toolkit for educators, a set of event videos, and the joint awareness campaign. PPE4InfoDem will engage 1705 direct participants and reach an estimated 144720 people through online and offline dissemination. This innovative project challenges populist fear narratives and affirms democratic rights, inclusion, and civic empowerment through collective, participatory learning.
