FOKUS media education – the new media education programme for social workers is here

This training programme offers qualifications in media literacy and media education for social workers in children’s and youth welfare.

The aim is to expand the technical, professional and personal competencies of social workers. When working with children, young people and families, media should be taken into account in order to support young people on their way to becoming media literate personalities.

The programme is organised in cooperation with WeTeK gGmbH and BITS 21 in the Association for Youth and Social Work implemented and funded by the European Union (European Social Fund) and the Senate Department for Education, Youth and Family with support through jugendnetz-berlin.de.
