As part of mobilizing knowledge in the area of misinformation and disinformation, we plan to organize different activities, such as curated conversations, podcasts, and curated publications. Our goal is to facilitate awareness building about the issue, sharing knowledge, and encouraging good practices in solving this complex problem.
Knowledge Mobilization
Knowledge mobilization is the art of translating information into actionable wisdom.
Digital Development, Information Integrity and Inclusive Innovation (DIDI) webinar series: As we continue to advance in the digital realm, tackling misinformation and promoting inclusive innovation are crucial. We are actively engaging in discussions with various stakeholders including scholars, policymakers, practitioners, and land users who have firsthand experience in combating misinformation and disinformation across different sectors such as agri-food, climate change, and the adoption of new and emerging tools. This includes responsible use of artificial intelligence for knowledge mobilization and agri-food and climate development.
