This inaugural event is set to launch a series of MIL training sessions for police officers, which are scheduled to be completed by December 30, 2024. The symposium will take place from 10 AM to 1 PM on November 16, 2024, in the Police Headquarters Conference Room, serving as the first step in a comprehensive initiative to equip officers with essential media literacy skills.<\/p>\n<p>The Media Literacy Symposium is designed as the initial part of a tripartite series intended to enhance police officers&#8217; ability to responsibly and effectively navigate the increasingly complex media landscape. The event aims to enhance Media and Information Literacy (MIL) competencies in accordance with UNESCO&#8217;s Global MIL Awareness Campaign. It will address three key subjects: an overview of Media and Information Literacy specifically tailored for law enforcement, strategies for utilizing social media to foster community engagement, and the principles of crisis communication along with techniques for managing misinformation in online environments.<\/p>\n<p>The symposium\u00a0 aims to improve the interaction of law enforcement with the public, by training personnel to gain a better understanding of media and increase information literacy. This initiative supports UNESCO\u2019s objective of fostering MIL competencies across various sectors, promoting responsible media consumption and communication practices.<\/p>\n<p>The training series implements Junior Chamber International\u2019s goal of fostering societal growth through educational and empowerment initiatives, ultimately contributing to the creation of a more informed and safer community.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"In recognition of UNESCO\u2019s Global Media and Information Literacy (MIL) Week, JCI West Indies has announced its facilitation of a pioneering Media Literacy Symposium aimed at law enforcement personnel.
