Learn to Discern is IREX’s media-literacy curriculum: it teaches people to judge whether what they read, see and hear is true.
Between April and May 2023 DreamSpace Academy delivered it as a series of eight photographed workshops in six districts, covering the North, the East and the plantation (estate) areas of the central hills. All of them were run from Batticaloa.
- Hatton, 5 April
- Batticaloa, 11 April, 30 April and 24 May
- Ampara, 29 April
- Nuwara Eliya, 21 May
- Mullaitivu, 27 May
- Trincomalee, 28 May
The series continued for years. Navigate, the academy’s own centre in Mullaitivu, coordinated further workshops in Mullaitivu in October and November 2024, where participants learned to identify misinformation and check what they are being told.
