ABOUT US

Since our foundation as Fondazione Media Literacy – Sotto i Venti we have decided to focus our activities on education and information, especially involving high school students. We believe that raising awareness and increasing the knowledge of young adults is one of the main elements to guarantee the health of modern democracy, social cohesion and personal fulfillment.

OUR METHOD

  • Learning by doing

  • Peer to peer

WHAT WE DO

Projects

Our approach is operational: we promote and implement cultural initiatives, develop publications, organize seminars, conferences and non-formal learning workshops focused on the proper use of traditional and new media.

Multimedia totems

Multimedia totems placed in the common areas of the schools allow the students to read the front pages of newspapers and breaking news. Additionally, the totems could be used as notice boards to display school communications.
