This module examines how young people access
information in a digital age where social media has
transformed communication and interaction. It also
addresses the concept of freedom of
expression and the importance of promoting
critical digital literacy to build an
informed citizenry.
In this regard, Article 4 of
the Inter-American Democratic Charter (OAS, 2001)
states:
"Transparency in government
activities, probity, responsible public
administration on the part of governments, respect
for social rights, and freedom of expression and of
the press are essential components of the exercise
of democracy."
To address this topic,
we
propose the following activities:
1. Read the document for
Module 5: Be informed and review its infographic.

community for context. Feel free to comment on
