Call for proposal: Conducting a competency gap assessment on Media and Information Literacy (MIL) RE-ADVERTISEMENT
UNESCO Dakar office, which oversees The Gambia, seeks to conduct an MIL competency gap assessment in The Gambia under its component of the Peace Building Fund project entitled "Young Women and Men as Stakeholders in Ensuring Peaceful Democratic Processes and Advocates for the Prevention of Violence and Hate Speech". The two-year project is being implemented by the UN System in The Gambia as a part of the response to such challenges affecting community cohesion.
The findings of the MIL competency gap assessment will, among other things, inform a capacity building program for young people on Media and Information Literacy skills so they can engage ethically with information and media, mainly social media.

- Conducting the MIL competency gap assessment;
- Training young community leaders on MIL to foster their participation to peaceful and democratic public discourse.
