Finland Leads Europe in Media Literacy Education Amid Rising Misinformation

Finland has established itself as Europe’s most media literate country, integrating media literacy into its education system from early childhood through secondary school. With a national policy updated in 2019, Finland aims to empower citizens to critically evaluate information and combat misinformation. The collaborative efforts of schools, media, and societal institutions have fostered strong public trust and resilience against misleading information. Despite its successes, Finland remains cautious of potential challenges from external influences and the rapid evolution of digital media.
