Media literacy refers to the knowledge and competencies needed to engage confidently and responsibly with the media. Media literacy enables informed choices – and by extension, an informed population.
Our countries share many similarities, a fact reflected in the survey results, though important differences also emerge. Improving media literacy is a key priority for the Nordic media authorities. To strengthen our shared knowledge base, authorities in all Nordic countries have joined forces to conduct a comprehensive survey on multiple dimensions of media literacy.The findings in the Nordic Media Literacy Survey provide valuable insight that can inform future policies, raise awareness, and support efforts to strengthen both digital resilience and democratic participation.
