Finland has been fighting fake news by teaching media literacy to children as young as 3. The Nordic nation includes this in its national curriculum to help citizens recognize disinformation, especially from Russia.
This is excelent article about media literacy. Not because its great article, but because it shows how much bullshit people write over the internet.
Nobody is teaching media literacy to 3 year olds in Finland.
Yes in the early childhood education program there is part of teaching children in kindergarden the basics of media, trough children games and fun. Its there because it helps to build fountation for later learning. Much in the same way kids learn about animals and colours trough song and games. Its not like there are classes where teachers make children to take quizzes amd get grade from the subject.
Also it has been in the program since 2018. Its not there specifically against Russian propaganda.
