"Stolen Lives," a compelling short film, is set to take center stage as part of the groundbreaking 'Fake News: Tackling Discrimination' project, an Erasmus Plus KA210 initiative launched on May 31, 2022. Led by a consortium featuring ORSAM (Middle East Research Center), Cojep International, and Hitit University, this innovative project aims to combat media misinformation and discrimination, with a specific focus on the portrayal of refugees and its impact on societal peace.

The short film, produced by Hitit University, serves as a poignant visual narrative designed to shed light on the misleading representations of refugees in the media. Through its creative storytelling, "Stolen Lives" seeks to enhance media literacy among youth, youth workers, and policymakers. The film aligns with the broader objectives of the project, which include raising awareness about media misinformation, developing critical thinking skills, and promoting informed public discourse. As a key output, "Stolen Lives" stands as a testament to the project's commitment to fostering a more informed, tolerant, and resilient society.
