NEW EDUCATION

Ways of non-formal education empower individuals of all ages with the skills and confidence to think critically, engage creatively, and navigate today’s rapidly evolving world and influence the future. Through non-formal education projects like the Media Lab, Mediathon, and Capacity Labs, we promote media literacy, combat misinformation, and encourage independent and critical thinking. Initiatives such as the Media Lab Baltic acceleration program and Critical Thinking workshops connect participants across Europe and Latvian regions, offering hands-on experience through hackathons, journalism labs, and international competitions with professional guidance and mentorship. Together, these programs shape a new generation of socially engaged thinkers and innovators across the New East.

Gamification and Deep Engagement

[01]

Our educational experiences are anything but ordinary. Whether we’re working with youth, seniors, or professionals, we turn learning into an adventure. Through gamified formats like hackathons, role-playing simulations, and interactive media challenges, we spark curiosity, foster collaboration, and make education not only accessible — but unforgettable.

Balance of Theory and Practice

[02]

We believe that learning only becomes meaningful when it’s applied. That’s why every program strikes a thoughtful balance between knowledge and practice. Participants dive into real-world scenarios through discussions, creative workshops, content production, creating their own projects, research tasks, and public presentations. They don’t just learn — they grow confident in using what they know.

Cultivating Critical Minds

[03]

In a world overflowing with information — and misinformation — critical thinking and media literacy aren’t optional. They’re essential. Our programs empower participants to spot manipulation, verify facts, analyze sources, and navigate the digital landscape with clarity and independence. We build skills that protect, empower, and inspire informed action.
