We will also address <strong>a real and well-documented gap in the educational landscape<\/strong>: although children and adolescents are constantly exposed to media content, schools do not systematically equip them with the tools to understand it, critically evaluate it, and dispute it. The content that influences their attitudes, expectations, and perceptions is not primarily what is taught in the classroom, but what they encounter every hour of their daily lives, images, videos, news, advertisements, influencers, and digital narratives. <strong>How, then, can we support children in becoming critical consumers of media and, in turn, creators of more inclusive media narratives<\/strong>?<\/p>\n<p>These and other questions will be explored during the event, which is addressed to <strong>educators<\/strong>, <strong>members of the academic community<\/strong> and <strong>civil society<\/strong>, <strong>journalists<\/strong> and <strong>media content producers<\/strong>, <strong>parents<\/strong>, and anyone interested in issues of gender equality in the public sphere.<\/p>\n<p>In this meaningful discussion will be <strong>Sissy Alonistiotou<\/strong>, <strong>Journalist<\/strong>, and <strong>Vasiliki Nika, Laboratory Teaching Staff (EDIP), Department of Primary Education, National and Kapodistrian University of Athens (NKUA), PhD in Media Education<\/strong>. Both contributed to the design and critical review of the handbook. The aim of the event is to open a constructive dialogue around the importance of <strong>preparing children of all ages<\/strong> for today\u2019s media environment and to share <strong>practical tools<\/strong> that can help integrate this goal into our everyday interactions with them.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">The third cycle of the School of No Bias project is implemented by WHEN as part of the programme \u201c<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/actionaid.gr\/power\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">POWER \u2013 Promoting Organisations\u2019 empoWErment to guarantee women\u2019s human Rights and stop gender violence<\/a><\/strong>\u201d.
