In the World of Misinformation and Hate Speech Peace is an Endangered Animal

 Workshop, 25 Sep 2024 - 04 Oct 2024, Belgrade, Serbia

17 year-old students learn about the way social media and media in general use misinformation and hate speech to alter the perception of people. This is done as a workshop on Riots in England this summer (analysis of news sources, inflammable language of headlines, celebrities influence on social media, etc.). Students had a hands-on experience of the influence of misinformation, and raised awareness of the importance of critical thinking, information checking and difference between free speech and hate speech, as well as its impact on peace in the world.
