The project is designed to promote media literacy, exchange of experience and practices between organizations involved in adult education. A general vulnerability linked to age should be acknowledged and effective measures taken. Partners want to involve to the project activities adult learners who have difficulties to understand media texts and to express themselves in mainstream and especially in social media, to show their needs and opinions to general public and decision makers. Reading and writing competencies can improve their self-confidence and lifestyle, to support their involvement in the social life and motivate for future learning.
