As part of Media Literacy Week organized by Media Smarts We Are Here Canada is excited to host Cathy Buerger, Director of Research with the Dangerous Speech Project!

Join us to understand the importance of counterspeech even in progressive, democratic societies and learn techniques to counter disinformation, hate and dangerous speech in digital communities.

During dynamic, small group discussions, participants can explore different communication strategies, how to shake up the complacent and inspire others to action while reflecting on the questions:

“Why is counterspeech an important part of responsible digital citizenship? What steps can I take to create supportive, compassionate digital spaces?"
