MIL Lab Indonesia

MIL Lab or Media and Information Literacy Lab is a youth-led learning space, established in 2024 as a place for every young person to express, grow, and join a smart and creative generation developing the world! We believe that opportunities for education and creating equality are essential weights in meaningful learning processes. As an idea laboratory and collaboration hub, MIL Lab promotes participatory and innovative media literacy education to combat disinformation, digital violence, and information bias. This is where the journey toward a smarter and more media-literate future begins together.
Guided by our core values summarized in the acronym MIL, we actively Mobilize Change by bringing communities together to coordinate action and inspire awareness. We are committed to Inclusivity by creating a safe and supportive environment where every individual has equal opportunity to develop. All our efforts are driven by the Love of Learning, a spirit to nurture curiosity, celebrate intellectual exploration, and build knowledge together.
