Awards History
NAMLE’s Media Literate Media Awards started out as the Partnership for Media Education’s (PME) Outstanding Achievement Awards. First presented at Summit 2000: Children Youth and Media – Beyond the Millennium in Toronto, Canada, the purpose of the Awards was to encourage mainstream media to incorporate media literacy into their work by publicly acknowledging those who do so.
