Tackling Misinformation in Your Community: A Practical Workshop

Tuesday, May 14, 2024 at 12:00p.m. - 1:00p.m.

Sometimes it feels as if misleading information is everywhere. From memes pushing bogus treatments without evidence to deep fakes and AI-driven disinformation, it can be hard to navigate today's information ecosystem.

Join the Lifespan Community Health Institute for this workshop. We'll talk about how misinformation spreads, why we are all susceptible, and how we can get better at verifying information. We'll also explore how, collectively, we can build misinformation resilience in our communities.

Speaker

This workshop will be led by Stefanie Friedhoff, co-founder of the Information Futures Lab, Professor of the Practice, and Senior Director of Strategy and Innovation at the Brown University School of Public Health.
