- **Event Name**: BEHIND THE LIES: UNDERSTANDING THE AGE OF MISINFORMATION
- **Event Start and End Date**: Tue, 17 Jun, 2025 at 02:30 pm – Tue, 17 Jun, 2025 at 05:30 pm
- **Event Description**: In an era inundated with digital narratives proclaiming doom and gloom, it's time to dissect the sensationalism, challenge our perspectives, and craft a collective response.

From conspiracy theories to viral pseudoscience, misinformation has become one of the most dangerous forces shaping our world today. But what makes us believe? Why do falsehoods spread faster than facts? And, most importantly, how can we protect ourselves and our communities?

Join acclaimed science educator Melanie Trecek-King, founder of Thinking Is Power, for a powerful session on critical thinking, belief formation, and the hidden mechanics of misinformation. Discover how to sharpen your thinking, spot manipulation tactics, and become a more resilient digital citizen.

After the lecture, we flip the script.
Participants will play Bad News, an award-winning online game where YOU become the disinformation agent. Through this activity, we can learn the tactics used to mislead the public, then turn that knowledge into creative counter-narratives. Think memes, fake headlines, and team-built media posts that reveal how easily falsehoods can take hold.

Participate in person to join our workshop and play the game together or online only to follow Melanie's lecture, to register please fill the form: https://forms.gle/YHE3P13GnJbvQCyW9 

Featuring Melanie Trecek-King | Creator of Thinking Is Power @ThinkingPowers, https://thinkingispower.com
