Combatting Mis + Disinformation: Leveraging the Power of Meaning-Making for Truth 

The best defense to mis and disinformation stories is a powerful offense of narrative strategy. In “Combatting Mis + Disinformation: Leveraging the Power of Meaning-Making for Truth ” with Shaira Chaer, ReFrame Program Specialist, Research & Content, participants will develop a shared understanding of the difference between misinformation and disinformation, their relationship to narrative power, and “the truth,” and dive into a case study.

Participants will also leave with concrete takeaways on identifying and not amplifying mis-and-disinformation.

All registered participants may attend a live Office Hours Session on October 11th from 3:00 - 4:00 PM EST to explore the concepts further, answer questions, etc.

Scripting and Storytelling Best Practices

This training will cover scripting, storytelling, and social media distribution fundamentals to create short-form social media videos that succinctly communicate your message to supporters.

After the training, you'll have more confidence in creating engaging, story-based social media videos and using video to advance your narrative power-building strategy.
