Please join us at the University of Ottawa’s Information Integrity Lab on Friday, January 31, 2025, for a virtual workshop addressing the urgent issue of climate mis/disinformation.
This dynamic two-part event will bring together experts, practitioners, and stakeholders from diverse fields to explore actionable tools and strategies for combating false narratives, fostering trust in climate communication, and supporting informed climate action.
The workshop will provide a collaborative platform for participants to share research, perspectives, and experiences relevant to the Canadian context and work together to identify tools, strategies, frameworks, and initiatives that have been successful or show promise in addressing mis/disinformation.
Moderated by InfoLab climate associate Andrew Heffernan, the event will draw on insights from his most recent paper examining the current state of climate mis/disinformation in Canada, offering a foundational perspective for discussions.
This workshop also serves as a key step in the lead-up to the InfoLab’s 2025 Climate Mis/Disinformation Summit, helping to shape its themes and priorities.
