Improving Digital Literacy in an Era of Disinformation

Virtual Workshop

Improving Digital Literacy in an Era of Disinformation

May 20, 2026
1:30 p.m.− 3:45 p.m. ET

As misinformation, AI-generated content and algorithmic amplification reshape public discourse, the ability to separate fact from falsehood has become a core leadership skill. Advocacy and communications professionals must not only recognize unreliable content but help others navigate it with confidence. This session examines how organizations can promote digital discernment, model responsible communication and protect their credibility in an era where trust is easily lost.
