Media Literacy in the Age of AI - Belfast study visit > Take a look inside!

As part of the Youth Connect programme, young participants from across Europe came together at Queen’s University Belfast to collaborate, exchange ideas and bring their projects to life.

During the visit, they:
⬩ connected with peers from different countries
⬩ worked with experts in media, AI and digital innovation
⬩ explored how technology shapes the way we create and consume information
⬩ built on ideas developed during the national trainings

This study visit offered a space for collaboration, creativity and learning — supporting young people to take their work on media literacy to the next level.

We’ve just wrapped up Media Literacy in the Age of AI, part of the British Council’s Youth Connect programme that is bringing together young leaders to explore one of today’s most urgent topics: how AI is reshaping the information we see, share and trust.

The programme took place in Cyprus, Greece, France, Ireland, Romania and the UK (Scotland and N. Ireland) uniting youth voices across Europe and the UK.

In a world of algorithm-driven feeds, synthetic content and fast-spreading misinformation, media literacy is no longer just a skill, it’s a form of civic empowerment.

Over the past months, participants worked collaboratively through trainings, ideathons and international exchanges to:
⬩ sharpen critical thinking and identify bias, manipulation and disinformation
⬩ understand how algorithms, data and platforms shape public discourse
⬩ explore ethical questions around privacy, online behaviour and responsibility
⬩ co-create innovative solutions: from apps to campaigns, promoting responsible media engagement

From local workshops across Europe to a final international study visit, the programme connected emerging changemakers with experts, researchers and policymakers - turning ideas into action and empowering a new generation of digital leaders.

The result? A growing network of young people equipped not just to navigate the digital world — but to shape its future for the common good.

Pushing yourself to talk about new ideas can raise your score in the IELTS Speaking test. 🙌

That’s because you must say something genuine instead of giving memorised answers or reusing common vocabulary.
