At the McLuhan Foundation, we’re helping to identify and build the networks to support the critical thinking and agency that educators, young people, and all of us need.
We are reimagining digital media literacy for the 21st century—and we need the world’s greatest minds to help us do it.
We’re bringing educators, researchers, industry leaders, and students together to imagine and experiment with new ways to empower young people with a critical perspective on digital media.
We’re strengthening the world’s community of digital media literacy champions. We want to empower these educators, policymakers, and organizations to bring the solutions we discover together into communities, classrooms, curricula, policy and programs across the globe.
We have built an online platform to connect people who make digital media literacy their mission. We convene virtually to share our discoveries, best practices, and critical perspectives on digital media and technology.
We want to expand the field’s definition of media literacy to include a greater focus on the impact of technology and media. McLuhan’s probe–that the medium is the message–informs our approach.
