SUMMARY:UNESCO Chair in Democracy\, Global Citizenship and Transformative Education (DCMET) Symposium 2023
DESCRIPTION:Structure\, Organization and Activities\nThe 2023 International Symposium will involve a hybrid series of presentations\, dialogues\, keynotes\, cultural activities and engagements over a four-day period focused on Peace\, Culture and Social Justice. \nEverything will be disseminated open-access via ZOOM and Facebook Live\, then uploaded to DCMÉT’s YouTube channel with the consent of presenters. \nWe are planning for roughly 18 sessions in English and 7 in French and 10 in Spanish. We will also have approximately10 sessions in Korean as well as 4 keynotes that will be simultaneously interpreted. \nThe one-hour sessions will be structured as dialogues with 3-4 presenters around themes that will be cultivated and developed through several meetings before the Symposium. A central focus will be on peace\, culture and social justice with critical overlapping analysis and engagement emphasizing overlapping themes\, such as democracy\, global citizenship\, transformative education\, Indigenous knowledge\, rights\, development and reconciliation\, social media\, the environment\, and solidarity. \nTwo program coordinators for each language are responsible for developing the sessions\, and they are also members of the Organizing Committee\, which will be led by Paul R. Carr (the Chair-holder of the UNESCO Chair DCMÉT) and co-chaired by Gina Thésée (the Co-Chair of the UNESCO Chair DCMET). There is also a local organizing committee in Seoul\, and a communications sub-committee that will coordinate media relations and dissemination in the four languages ​​of the Symposium.

SUMMARY:Getting Started Today: Free Resources for Integrating Media Decoding throughout the K-12 Curriculum
DESCRIPTION:Today’s educators are often excited about teaching media literacy with their students\, but often don’t have the time to find media examples for decoding or ways to build media decoding into their already full curriculum. This highly interactive webinar will showcase Project Look Sharp’s free resources for educators – including more than 850 free media literacy lessons that use an inquiry-based\, curriculum-driven\, student-centered approach to building critical thinking and analysis skills from kindergarten through college. Teachers and librarians will come away with both the materials and PD resources to integrate media literacy immediately into their work with students\, and to share with their administrators and colleagues. \n\n\n\nWhen you register as a 2023 U.S. Media Literacy Week participant here\, you’ll automatically be registered for this event.

SUMMARY:Critical Media Literacy Conference of the Americas
DESCRIPTION:The Critical Media Literacy Conference of the Americas is committed to democratic ideals and social justice values. We relate to the media as a dialectical space for criticism and celebration. The media are complex tools whose effects do not always coincide with the intentions. The media can promote democratic participation\, support social justice\, and offer considerable joy\, but they can hinder democracy\, ignite violence\, and manipulate individuals and society. Our goal for this conference is to facilitate critical discourse about our mediated society with the intention to deepen our understanding and support each other’s work in the transformation of society\, to make it socially fairer and environmentally sustainable.
