Regional Chapters
The five Regional Chapters of the UNESCO Media and Information Literacy Alliance represent the Alliance and coordinate activities at the regional level. The representatives of the Regional Chapters are the focal points in the regions along with other Regional Committee members. They develop and implement regional action plans to stimulate synergies around media and information literacy, based on the Global Framework and Action Plan of the Alliance.
