Strategic communication is the process of identifying, planning, executing and evaluating the internal and external communication messages and actions of organisations to achieve their specific objectives.

Media literacy should not sound like a lecture. Its value lies in helping people read, question, verify and participate more thoughtfully. Spotting a hoax is the starting point, not the destination.
