Media literacy and digital rights discussed in Montemale di Cuneo

Discussions regarding digital information integrity and the impact of the internet on personal identity are taking center stage in regional cultural programming. One perspective emphasizes the ‘right to be forgotten,’ arguing that digital memory is not neutral and can unfairly govern a person's present by resurfacing outdated or irrelevant past information during background checks by employers or banks.

Complementing this, journalist Micol Maccario from Pagella Politica will host an event in Montemale di Cuneo titled ‘Beyond the Headline.’ The session aims to teach critical reading skills, helping citizens distinguish between true news and incorrect information, recognize clickbait, and utilize fact-checking tools to navigate public debate.
