Ten organisations joined the media literacy incubation programme by FactShala that worked on innovative media & information literacy interventions ranging from media literacy curriculum, courses, dramas and games related to issues of critical and informed consumption of information. Through this programme we aimed to strengthen the discourse on Media literacy by incorporating multiple narratives that cater to different regional audiences and build resilience in them to take control of their information consumption.
Here is a series of stories capturing the journey of the Cohort.
