Designing Against Disinformation Workshop
Details
This workshop is all about creating fanzines to fight disinformation. The project uses bits and pieces from three previous Sci-Bi exhibitions to make the fanzines.
The workshop is aimed at dealing with one of the biggest challenges that science faces today, which is the spreading of lies and distortions through ideological agendas and subjective viewpoints. The problem is made worse by the fact that scientific and political authorities aren't doing enough to communicate factual information effectively.
This iniciative tries to use Communication Design to come up with new ways to talk about scientific knowledge that will help people who are skeptical of it. If we can learn to talk in the same way that people who don't believe in science do, maybe we can get them to listen to us
Designing Against Disinformation Exhibition
This workshop will also have an exhibition at UPTEC Baixa, which will run from April 22 to May 10.
