Description:
The Office of Community Engagement and Civic Learning is hosting an event called: “Information Literacy and Well-being: A Panel and Roundtable Discussions on Navigating Media and Disinformation in Our Community.” The discussion will examine the impact of misinformation and disinformation on individuals/communities, institutions, and especially vulnerable groups. Participants will explore ways to promote equitable access to trustworthy information and prevent harm from false narratives in our never-ending sea of news and information online. The event will also address the well-being challenges of navigating this overwhelming and emotionally charged media.
The goal of the event is for the panel to lay the foundation of the issue and then lead us into collaborative roundtable discussions where hopefully new connections are birthed as well as pathways for joint projects, research, partnerships, and volunteerism.

Time: Noon to 1:30 p.m., with lunch from 11:30 a.m. to noon
