UNESCO webinar: memory institutions and the ‘disinfodemic’
Libraries, archives and museums have a crucial role in fighting the ‘disinformation pandemic’ following the global covid-19 crisis. Within the framework of the UNESCO – Media and Information Literacy and Intercultural Dialogue University Network (MILID) Response to COVID-19 webinar series, the Documentary Heritage Unit (Memory of the World Programme) and the Section for Media and Information Literacy and Media Development have partnered to organize a discussion on the role of memory institutions in the current crisis. To be moderated by Dr. Fackson Banda, the webinar features an excellent line-up of speakers from France, Mexico, Oman and the United States.
