The https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hPl45wWtZdwvideo of the latest EDMO BELUX Lunch Lecture is online! In this webinar, Dr. Sacha Altay (University of Zurich), a post-doctoral behavioural scientist working on misinformation, social media, and the news, discussed how we can (re)frame and effectively respond to misinformation.
People across the world are increasingly concerned about misinformation, which is often blamed for numerous contemporary issues. In this talk, Dr. Sacha Altay argued that claims about the prevalence and impact of misinformation can sometimes be overstated, suggesting that misinformation is primarily a symptom of deeper underlying problems. He shared insights and practical recommendations for enhancing the quality of our information environment.
