33 Few Discussion Points
34 Global citizenship in the digital age calls for this marriage between intercultural, interreligious competencies and MIL competencies to realize intercultural and interreligious dialogue. Dialogue is part of the construction of self-identity and self-determination This merger of competencies opens up the opportunity for citizens to engage with technology, the media, libraries as well as information providers, including those on the Internet, through a three- stage process necessary to achieve interreligious and intercultural dialogue: 1. Understanding the ethos of one s religion or culture and that of others. This is the spirit or the character of religions or cultures; the thinking of those practicing that culture. 2. Through self-introspection and communal exchanges, learn to appreciate differences. This does not imply a necessity to accept or to choose to practice the differences in another culture. But at least one should embrace pathos to empathize with the differences. 3. Then through true and open dialogue agree on the logos a common word or understanding that can lead to religious tolerance and cultural exchange and cooperation.
35 This relates to what Frau-Meigs, refers to as self-management as well as engagement. She uses the term civic agency. Information, media and technology, when combined with MIL, are introducing opportunities for: 1. Reduction intolerance and increase understanding across political or cultural boundaries. 2. Citizens from all around the world to easily communicate thus enabling more cultural exchange. 3. Understanding that defending freedom of the press also refers to the protection of freedom of culture and religion. In this sense, MIL encourages a diversity of opinions. 4. Social vigilance and critical faculties at a time when anyone can post anything on the Internet. Some challenges if not effectively remedied by MIL could undermine the freedom of expression in virtual spaces. 5. Helping overcome disinformation but also stereotypes and intolerance conveyed through some media and in online spaces. 6. Empowerment of citizens with competencies to hold media and other information professionals accountable
