Web+ (Ambassador Grant)

Identify, Report, Engage. 

The training was conducted across three days, with 12 young participants given digital citizenship education. Together the participants examined the causes of misinformation and disinformation, how these issues related to hate speech and xenophobia, and looked at their societal consequences.

They were then trained on how to identify misinformation, which reporting mechanisms were available and how to engage other users online to construct counter narratives.

Following the training, the team designed 8 infographics on the subject: definitions of fake news, how to identify it and how to report it.

The participants were also tasked with applying their newly-built skills online and disseminating the project’s educational material.
