Global Media and Information Literacy (MIL) Week 22-28 June #milweek

The 4th annual Media and Information Literacy (MIL) Week starts tomorrow, and runs June 22-28, 2015. Events include the NAMLE (US) National Association for Media Literacy Education) Conference taking place June 26-27, 2015 in Philadelphia, USA. It includes a focus on MIL and Intercultural Dialogue (MILID) with some interesting panel sessions and presentations. As you might expect, given the organisers, the strength of the conference is more in media and digital literacy than information literacy.
