People’s deputy Mykola Kniazhytskyi addressed the youth of Drohobych and answered their questions. The meeting was preceded by the transfer of computer equipment to the schools of the region as part of the Leave no one behind partnership project
Schoolchildren from Lyceum No. 2 of the Drohobytsk City Council actively asked the parliamentarian questions about modern challenges, the role of media and information technologies in shaping the consciousness of young people, as well as about informational threats during the war.
The MP said that Ukrainian youth bear great responsibility for the future of the country and the entire democratic world. “Ukraine found itself at the center of world history. What is happening now in our country is of great importance for the future of the whole world. We are defending not only our independence, but also democratic values, for which many countries are fighting,” emphasized Kniazhytskyi.
Students were also interested in the issue of combating disinformation. Kniazhytskyi casually called on young people to be attentive to information, check its veracity and avoid the spread of fakes. “The media is each of you. Today, thanks to social networks, every person can influence the information space”, said the deputy, answering the question “How do the media shape the consciousness of young people?”.
In addition to discussions, the meeting had another important part – the transfer of equipment for schools in the region within the framework of the Leave no one behind partnership project. It is implemented by the public organization “All-Ukrainian Democratic Forum” with the support of Taiwan and with the assistance of Mykola Kniazhytskyi. In total, 4 schools of Drogobych region received 48 laptops and projectors with screens: Lyceum No. 2 of the Drogobych City Council, KZ LOR Regional Scientific Lyceum, Stebnytskyi Gymnasium N18 and Stebnytskyi Gymnasium N11 named after Taras Zozuli.
“Young people should be provided with modern tools for learning. This is especially important now, when the latest technologies are becoming an integral part not only of education, but also of our struggle for independence,” concluded Kniazhytskyi.
