This will be achieved through an interactive "training of trainers" program, targeting NGO workers, journalists, and educators. These trained multipliers will then pass on their knowledge to a broader audience across regional centers in Armenia, with a special focus on vulnerable groups, including women in rural areas and refugees from Nagorno-Karabakh. By equipping these communities with critical media literacy tools, the initiative aims to cultivate a more informed and resilient society.
A unique aspect of the project is the development of a card game, a creative educational tool that builds upon last year’s successful simulation game. The previous project simulated the disinformation ecosystem in Armenia, providing participants with hands-on experience in identifying and countering disinformation. The new card game will serve as a valuable resource in furthering these efforts, making media literacy education both engaging and accessible.
In addition to the local activities, the project will include a study trip to Berlin, where selected participants will have the opportunity to explore media literacy strategies in a different context. This trip is expected to strengthen collaboration between Armenian and German institutions, fostering a transnational exchange of knowledge and best practices.
Supported by the ÖPR funding program and the Federal Foreign Office of Germany, this initiative is a collaborative effort between CRISP - Crisis Simulation for Peace e.V. in Berlin and the Centre for Policy Studies NGO (CPS) in Yerevan.
