Countering Disinformation with Communications
Disrupt disinformation before it spreads with a smart strategy
At Spitfire, we believe that fighting disinformation is a core competency necessary for organizations working on issues as far ranging as democracy, civil rights, immigration, racial justice, gender justice, poverty alleviation, health, climate change and more.
We created the Just Truth: A Communicator’s Guide to Combatting Disinformation in a Hyper-Connected World tool to share the latest research conducted on disinformation’s impact and communications strategies for how to confront it with nonprofit and philanthropic communicators.
This online training is offered as a two-hour session via Zoom. We encourage participants to join live. We will send recordings and materials to participants post-session.

What You’ll Learn:
-
Basic definitions of mis- and disinformation
-
The techniques bad actors use to manipulate audiences to spread disinformation and harmful ideologies
-
The roles that social media, news media and consumers play in the amplification and spread of disinformation
-
Communications strategies, including messaging, we can use to prevent the impact of disinformation
