    The Journalism Essentials project has played a crucial role in empowering Iraqi women not only in the field of journalism but also in broader societal contexts. It has fostered positive change within their communities, thanks to the support of partners like the Rudaw Media Network, The SEED Foundation, Internews, and the Google News Initiative. The UNFPA-led Journalism Essentials project has empowered over 160 Iraqi women with crucial journalism skills, particularly focusing on both traditional and social media platforms, and investigative journalism. This has enabled them to effectively address pressing issues impacting women and girls, such as child marriage and violence. Due to its significant impact, the project was honored with the esteemed Stevie Awards for Best Social Program of the Year in the Middle East and North Africa region.

    As part of Media Literacy Week (October 21-25) the Google News Initiative is proud to support the Canadian Journalism Foundation"Trust Wisely" initiative, a program dedicated to fostering media literacy and building trust in journalism. By providing the public with tools and resources to navigate today’s complex information landscape, this initiative empowers individuals to make informed decisions while also highlighting the processes behind quality journalism. We're excited to collaborate on this important effort to strengthen the foundation of reliable and responsible news. #GoogleNewsInitiative #TrustWisely #MediaLiteracy #QualityJournalism #TrustedNews

    TORONTO, Oct. 21, 2024 /CNW/ - As part of Media Literacy Week (October 21-25), the Canadian Journalism Foundation (CJF) is launching Trust Wisely, an invitation to newsrooms to remind their audiences how quality journalism works to earn their trust. The threat of misinformation, which undermines democracies and threatens civil liberties worldwide, makes the need for media literacy more pressing than ever. A recent study reveals that more than two in five Canadians (43%) report that it's harder to distinguish between true and false information today than it was three years ago. Natalie Turvey, CJF President and Executive Director, emphasizes the campaign's importance and the CJF's commitment to fostering and supporting quality journalism. "In today's complex information landscape, empowering Canadians with media literacy skills is crucial for the health of our democracy," she says. "The Trust Wisely campaign, in partnership with the Google News Initiative, unites news organizations nationwide in a shared mission to highlight the processes behind quality journalism. "Our goal isn't to dictate what's trustworthy, but to equip audiences with the tools to discern credible reporting for themselves. By fostering this understanding, we're not just supporting journalism – we're strengthening the foundation of an informed society." This year, Canada's publishers and news leaders are joining the CJF for the Trust Wisely campaign, collectively championing the importance of media literacy and the role of quality journalism in safeguarding democracy. This partnership between the CJF and the Google News Initiative highlights the hallmarks of quality journalism with resources, social media content, videos and digital advertisements that provide versatile, accessible perspectives on what separates quality journalism from misinformation. "Google recognizes the vital role media literacy plays in empowering individuals to navigate the vast ocean of information available online," says Suzanne Perron, News Partner Manager at Google Canada. "We are proud to partner with the Canadian Journalism Foundation in the Trust Wisely campaign to champion media literacy and equip Canadians with the tools they need to discern credible reporting and misinformation. By supporting initiatives that strengthen media literacy and quality journalism, we can foster an informed society and safeguard the health of our democracy." Read more: https://lnkd.in/ge6DxnfU
