EU - Western Balkans Media Literacy Conference: Opening remarks
Ladies and gentlemen, dear colleagues and friends,
I am pleased to welcome you to the first edition of the European Union – Western Balkans Media Literacy Conference.
The European Union is a Union of values and principles and today you will discuss important principles, which are at the core of the European Union and the European Union integration: media literacy, youth empowerment, the strengthening of civil society and media freedom.
These principles are also essential for fighting disinformation, a global challenge and a threat to democracy.
