Finland’s Media Literacy Model

Finland is globally recognized for its exceptional media literacy programs for children, ranking as one of the top countries in terms of digital education. Their approach is grounded in critical thinking and ethical media consumption, helping children navigate the digital world safely.

What can be done?

To ensure children are protected in the age of emerging technologies, Canada can implement stronger media literacy policies, focusing on digital safety and critical thinking from an early age. These changes could help bridge the gap between Finnish success and Canada’s current challenges.
