This chapter maps recent media literacy interventions from all over the world to the theory of change, at the level of media awareness. Media literacy makes a difference to awareness when it changes how people know what a healthy media ecosystem is and why trustworthy media and information is important; develop their understanding of how to judge if information is credible; understand better the representational and/or normative practices of all media; become more aware of how to be safe and resilient online and in the media ecosystem; make informed risk calculations with regard to online behaviour, media engagement and information circulation; use critical thinking skills to assess how media texts and/or artefacts and information sources are constructed and to evaluate their intentionality; use critical thinking skills to evaluate the diversity and equality of their media ecosystem as a whole; use critical thinking skills to develop understanding of media ownership, regulation, data and privacy and articulate online safety and data risks and which media and information they trust, and why. Written from the perspective of participants in media literacy interventions, this chapter accounts for the work which has made the most difference to media awareness.
