The results of a new Fulbright-NATO Security Studies Award are now 
available through a just-released report, “Building Resiliency: Media 
Literacy as a Strategic Defense Strategy for the Transatlantic,” by the 
Center for Media Literacy’s President, Tessa Jolls. This ground-breaking 
report highlights aspects of the current information ecosystem and the 
state of media literacy in NATO countries.
“With media literacy becoming more urgent due to a fraught information 
environment marked by disinformation and misinformation,” Jolls said, “I 
set out to provide a snapshot of current media literacy practices and 
programs, and to give a context for media literacy education within 
strategic defense.”

Funded by a partnership between the NATO Public Diplomacy Division and 
the Fulbright Commission in Brussels, this unique award
invites American academics and professionals to conduct a research or 
professional project that fosters awareness and understanding of the 
North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO). Jolls fulfilled her 
assignment in Brussels in 2021 through her host university, UCLouvain, 
where she served as a Visiting Scholar. She interviewed more than 60 
policy makers, media executives and journalists,
media literacy researchers and practitioners, and educators throughout 
NATO countries, and conducted a small 2022 survey of
practitioners to identify major media literacy conferences, 
organizations, and programs.
