In 1997, the Nordic Information Centre for Media and Communication Research (Nordicom), GÁ¶teborg University Sweden, began establishment of the International Clearinghouse on Children, Youth and Media, financed by the Swedish government and UNESCO. The overall point of departure for the Clearinghouse’s efforts with respect to children, youth and media is the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child. The aim of the Clearinghouse is to increase awareness and knowledge about children, youth and media, thereby providing a basis for relevant policymaking, contributing to a constructive public debate, and enhancing children’s and young people’s media literacy and media competence. Moreover, it is hoped that the Clearinghouse’s work will stimulate further research on children, youth and media.
