Event summary

Highlights

Inaugurated by Prime Minister Luc Frieden
Participatory and playful media education exhibits
Focus on combating disinformation and deepfakes
Part of the National Action Plan for the Safety of Journalists

The exhibition offers a participatory look into the work of media professionals, aiming to rebuild public trust by demystifying the news-gathering process. Through playful and educational displays, it illustrates how journalists verify facts and produce the information necessary for forming political opinions in a democracy.

A significant focus of the event is media literacy for younger audiences, particularly secondary school students. It addresses modern challenges such as social media echo chambers, deepfakes, and the spread of fake news. By highlighting the human element behind the news, the exhibition underscores the necessity of a free and safe environment for journalists.

Created at the initiative of Luxembourg's Department of Media, Connectivity and Digital Policy (SMC), the project involved contributions from the University of Luxembourg's "Medialux" project. It was produced in partnership with RTL, the Embassy of Switzerland in Luxembourg, and Journalistory.ch.
