The first half of 2026 has been an active and productive period for the MEDIActive Youth Network (MAYnet). Together with our partners from across Europe, we have continued strengthening youth media literacy, critical thinking and democratic participation.
Our new newsletter highlights some of the key achievements from the first six months of the year, including:
✅ implementation of the MAYnet Work Plan 2026

✅ participation in the EMERGE Expert Forum in Palermo
✅ launch and promotion of the Youth Media Literacy Declaration, already endorsed by 25+ organisations across Europe
