Special Interest Group in Disinformation and Media Literacy
The Trust & Technology Initiative is forming a new SIG in Disinformation and Media Literacy convened by Rory Finnin (Slavonic Studies) and Sander van der Linden (Social Psychology).
The Disinformation and Media Literacy SIG is a community of scholars and practitioners committed to exploring and advancing proactive and creative interventions against disinformation and ‘fake news’. Drawing together experts across a range of disciplines, it seeks to bring cutting-edge research to bear on contemporary policy discussions and to foster closer collaboration in the sphere of information literacy between scholars, policymakers and stakeholders in journalism, education, business and diplomacy.
