The international educational programme Youth Media & Debate Lab was held in Chișinău, Republic of Moldova. Among its participants was Olha Kobylieva, a student enrolled in the second-cycle (Master’s) educational and professional programme “Psychology (Practical Psychology)”.

The programme brought together young people from Ukraine, Moldova and Armenia. Participants analysed examples of disinformation, learned how to use fact-checking tools, developed skills in assessing the reliability of information, and created media content based on verified data. Discussions and debates on current challenges in today’s information environment formed an important part of the programme.

For Olha Kobylieva, participation in the international programme provided an opportunity to study alongside young people from other countries, exchange experience, establish professional contacts, and further develop her skills in critical analysis of information and communication.

Olha Kobylieva received a certificate in recognition of her active participation in the programme.

 The Youth Media & Debate Lab was implemented as part of the project “Beyond the Feed: Armenia–Moldova–Ukraine Youth Media and Debate Campaign for Civic Resilience”, with the support of the European Union and the Democracy in Eastern Partnership (DEAP) initiative.

 The programme was organised by youth and media organisations from Moldova, including Youth Media Center NGO, “Me and My School” NGO, and “We Youth” NGO of Lori Region.
