In our travel towards sustainability, education has an essential role to play: it ensures for us a better, more fulfilling and prosperous existence. Thanks to it we can read, analyse, communicate, and make informed choices (for instance, switching to more sustainable lifestyles). But hundreds of millions of kids around the world still remain out of school. That’s why the FACTS & FIGURES section points out the need to ensure a fairer distribution of resources to increase [enrolment & literacy] and reduce [illiteracy rates]. And we can learn in different ways: at school as well as from life's experiences, and from our cultural heritage [world languages]. The world of education is changing and ICT is becoming a more and more important tool to provide online educational services such as those displayed in the DEP’T STORE. Worldwide, several organisations are working hard for the integration of technology into the learning process [distance edu services] and to improve citizens’ awareness through media literacy [casseurs de pub]. Curious to know more about them? Surf through our JOBS section; discover how we can act to transform the media environment, reducing gender discrimination [media watch] and intolerance. In the TRAINER’S ROOM, learn how to read between the lines [food & drinks ads], or how to decode the hidden message in advertising [role models & body stereotypes]. And now, do you feel ready to challenge yourself... to check the impact of advertising in your daily consumption choices? If so, then come and enjoy the [to buy or not to buy?] game in the TEST & PLAY section. |
