TADAM Media Edukathon: Co-Create Inspiring Media Literacy activities on AI and the Future of Information

Whether you’re a media literacy educator, a media professional, journalist, researcher or simply passionate about the future of information, the TADAM project invites you to take part in the innovative event, the Media Edukathon.

Over two and a half exciting days, you’ll collaborate in a diverse team to tackle the challenges AI poses in the information landscape. Together, you’ll design creative and impactful media education activities that address how AI changes the way we access, process, and share information. This is your chance to co-create solutions that will shape the future of media literacy.

Guided by creative methodologies based on Design Fiction and collaborative brainstorming, this hands-on experience emphasizes innovation, teamwork, and critical thinking. You’ll work alongside experts and peers from different backgrounds and nationalities, bringing fresh perspectives to the table and learning new approaches to media education.

Set in the vibrant city of Athens, at the foot of the Acropolis, this international experience is more than just an event—it’s an immersive journey in co-creation and discovery.
