We are happy to announce the publication of an important result developed within the Erasmus+ project “Media Literacy – The Key to Critical Thinking” (Project ID: 2024-2-PL01-KA210-ADU-000291364): the Mini-Report on Fake News in Romania, Poland, and Latvia is now available!

This publication marks a key milestone of Work Package 2 (WP2) and reflects the collaborative work between partners from the three countries. Based on field observations, comparative analysis, and feedback from adult educators, the report sheds light on the most pressing forms of disinformation we currently face.

From Latvia to Romania: Shared Challenges, Shared Solutions

The report builds on insights gathered during the international training for adult educators held in Saulkrasti, Latvia (September 1–6, 2025). Hosted by our Latvian partners, Latvijas Jauniesu Attistibas Centrs, this training offered participants from Romania, Poland, and Latvia a unique opportunity to share experiences, take part in interactive sessions, and join a powerful “Digital Safari” focused on identifying manipulation techniques in live online environments.

Our team from Asociația Se Poate contributed both local examples and educational strategies that are now reflected in the final version of the report. From political misinformation to emotional manipulation on TikTok, the case studies illustrate how digital narratives can distort public opinion, and what we can do about it.

Practical Tools for Educators

The Mini-Report on Fake News is not just a theoretical analysis. It provides ready-to-use recommendations, workshop templates, and examples of disinformation that adult educators can use in their own communities.

It is part of a broader media education toolkit developed by the project consortium under WP2, which includes:

Mini-Report on Fighting Fake News in Poland, Latvia and Romania
Video on Media Hygiene
Articles on How to Fight Fake News
Infographics on Media Literacy Topics
Local Media Literacy Presentations

We encourage educators, youth workers, and anyone interested in countering fake news and promoting digital resilience to explore these materials and use them in their own educational contexts.

Building Critical Thinking Together

We at Se Poate are proud to contribute to this shared European effort. Promoting media literacy among adults is one of our strategic priorities, and this report strengthens our mission to empower communities with the skills needed to think critically and navigate the digital world responsibly.
