How can educators and practitioners effectively implement media literacy frameworks to foster critical engagement in an increasingly digital and participatory global society? This collection, edited by Belinha S. De Abreu and Paul Mihailidis, synthesizes diverse perspectives from scholars and practitioners to examine the practical application of media literacy across various cultural and institutional contexts. The authors argue that media literacy is not a static subject but an evolving, activist-oriented project that requires localized, sustainable, and interdisciplinary approaches to address contemporary social inequalities and civic participation.
