"• There is a significant and diverse amount of media literacy resources, format of activities and media literacy initiatives being produced in Moldova in the preceding years, that consolidated a pool of national experts in the media literacy related field of expertise. A major part of these resul ... ts was made possible mainly due to civil society organisations initiatives and efforts, supported by donor community. • Mainly international donors and CSOs are setting the media literacy agenda since no state funding is available for these kinds of initiatives. The relevant state institutions should start gradually to take over the responsibility and lead in media literacy directions relevant to their areas of competencies. Besides taking the role as official partners of civil society driven initiatives, they should become initiators, proactive implementers and allocate budgets for this state level priority. • The government should initiate the development of a national policy or strategy on media literacy, that would establish the priority areas of actions and cross-sectoral roles and responsibilities distribution among government, parliament, civil society, media sector and donor community. They should also set up a functional coordination and implementation mechanism and ensure financial support. • The relevant state institutions should evaluate the national legislation and practices on fighting media disinformation, fake news, external propaganda etc. and adopt the required legislative amendments. They should build efficient mechanisms for operational and appropriate responses of public institutions. • National level surveys and research on media literacy are required to be conducted based on rigorous and national representative methodology to evaluate the media literacy dynamics, existing threats and gaps that needs to be addressed on regular basis. The current shortage of such data is a significant challenge for developing evidence based strategies and policies, but also for measuring the overall impact of all invested efforts and funding, and a barrier in identifying the best approaches in addressing different media literacy gaps. • Media literacy initiatives and projects should allocate budgets for results and impact monitoring and evaluation and donors encourage and assign sufficient funds to cover these costs. They are crucial to generate evidence-based information regarding the extent of results achieved, and the data for the most efficient media literacy formats for a specific target audience etc. • Donors should continue their support, aiming to strengthen the capacity of the independent media, national and regional, broadcasting in Romanian and ethnic minorities languages, through granting long-term institutional support (as opposed to project-based) to ensure people access to a diversity of objective information."

Ukraine Country Report. Media Literacy Sector Mapping in Georgia, Latvia, Moldova and Ukraine

"• A wide range of actors work in the media literacy field, but the lack of strategic policies and coordination creates inconsistencies and sometimes even collisions on the very definition of media literacy and approaches towards the development of media literacy. Future strategic policy documents ... have to take this into account and suggest a consistent approach among diverse actors. • Existing inconsistencies and insufficient coordination of activities should also be addressed by the donors and international organisations that have the capacity to encourage collaborations, and more active exchange of knowledge and best practices. It is also critical to elaborate and set up a mechanism for effective coordination of activities among the different media literacy actors. • Funding of media literacy projects and initiatives remains one of the biggest challenges. Ukrainian civil society organisations predominantly rely on financial support from foreign donors and international organisations. The government of Ukraine should create conditions to attract new actors that would provide financial assistance to media literacy initiatives. Suggesting incentives, including tax rebates, could stimulate businesses to get engaged in media literacy projects. • Development of media literacy policy, approaches and projects should be based on rigorous research of the audiences, both quantitative and qualitative. Both the government and donors should stimulate and support such research. NGOs and academic institutions should develop and design research projects that would help to understand the patterns of media consumption, perception of information and gaps in media literacy among Ukrainian citizens. • There is a need for a more effective monitoring and evaluation system in order to make relevant adjustments to the design of media literacy projects. This concerns both projects implemented by the NGOs and educational institutions. • Promotion of media literacy among a broad audience requires involvement of big TV channels and radio stations, local media, as well as the network of public broadcasting. While there is no consensus among different actors about the engagement of oligarch-owned media into media literacy efforts, the issue should be addressed and discussed by the key stakeholders. • As media education should be continuous, the government has to create appropriate conditions for this in the system of formal and informal education."

Georgia Country Report. Media Literacy Sector Mapping in Georgia, Latvia, Moldova and Ukraine

• The role of Media Literacy in resilience building is considered to be of pivotal importance, which is further stressed in the policy documents published within the last couple of years in Georgia. However, it is essential to underscore that the failure of achieving consensus on strategic approac ... hes between state and non-state actors remains the central obstacle towards enhancing the cooperation among the key stakeholders. Therefore, there is a need to create a cooperation format among governmental and non-governmental organisations that would ensure the elimination of mistrust, political neutrality and enhance the overall resilience level of the media consumers. • In order to define the target audience and evaluate the programmes carried out by various organisations, one requires comprehensive research focused on media consumption habits and the impact of media literacy programmes on beneficiaries. • Apart from evaluating the knowledge and skills that beneficiaries gain from media literacy projects, it is also essential to analyse the methodology that organisations use with different audiences to develop and refine their respective methodologies and tailor them better to diverse audiences. • The expertise of non-state actors with various resources needs to be utilised to achieve project sustainability and long-term results. In addition, these experiences should be incorporated into the formal academic processes. • Given the importance of media and digital literacy as transferable skills defined by the National Curriculum, there is a need to advance critical thinking from an early age, which by itself can be achieved by introducing media literacy as a compulsory subject in the school curricula. • Coming up with joint curricula-based assessment indicators and media and digital literacy definitions remains another essential priority since there is a lack of unified definitions among stakeholders. • Content diversification is crucial for Media outlets. This can be carried out by introducing MIL components not only in educational but entertainment content as well. • In the framework of preparing programmes intended to build the resilience of society, the Georgian Public Broadcaster (GPB) should cooperate with non-state actors to promote media literacy initiatives and pay special attention to the most vulnerable groups, including ethnic minorities. • There is an evident coordination problem across donors that often choose overlapping regions and target audiences, thus neglecting some of the most vulnerable audiences. Hence, the local representatives of international organisations should cooperate on setting strategic priorities to optimise resources. • Donors should allocate more resources to conduct evaluations and facilitate the implementation of best practices on the ground."
