Media-Smart Youth is a multi-year media literacy initiative to encourage young people ages 11 to 13 to become more aware of the role media play in shaping their values about nutrition and physical activity, and to help them build skills that encourage critical thinking, healthy lifestyle choices, and informed decision-making. As part of its assistance to the National Institute for Child Health and Human Development, AED has developed, pilot tested, and revised an interactive curriculum geared to youth in after-school programs. The Media-Smart Youth curriculum is awaiting national distribution.
