Media and Information Literacy (MIL) is a relatively new field. It is a response to the growing concern around the world to the increasingly complex media and information landscape, the changes in the way information is delivered by the media and consumed by people. This paper focuses on MIL actions taken by IREX Europe in the Republic of Moldova. IREX Europe is a non-profit, non-governmental organization based in Lyon, France, working to improve education, strengthen independent media, reduce conflict, and support democracy and human rights. Its project in Moldova – ‘Strengthening Independent Media and Media Literacy' is a four- year project focusing on supporting independent media; Empower citizens to engage with new media technologies, traditional media, and journalists by developing and expanding media literacy and media corners in libraries across Moldova; and strengthen links between the media and their communities through open discussion platforms gathering journalists, civil society organizations, and local audiences.
