The purpose of KAVI is to generally promote media education and to coordinate the implementation of the Media Education Policy. We offer support to the media education field and advise on questions relating to media literacy.

Material and education
We produce information and publish free media education material. We also share information about material produced by others. These publications can be found on KAVI’s website and in Media Literacy School (in Finnish and Swedish). We organise media education training for professionals in different fields, particularly for the regional and municipal sector.

Research-based media literacy work
Research provides tools for understanding media literacy, related phenomena and for its development. However, making use of research is not straightforward. Fortunately, there are many opportunities for media literacy professionals to develop a research-based approach.
