Whether it's fake news or AI hallucinations, mis/disinformation is more prevalent than ever in our current information landscape. In this workshop, we'll discuss the origins of misinformation and how to spot it in the wild before creating a "misinformation-countering toolbox" -- a series of strategies you can use to combat mis/disinformation in your personal and professional life. Leave this workshop feeling energized and optimistic about the active role you can play in protecting yourself and your community from bad actors and bad information.
