A dozen global experts explore the burgeoning field of infodemic management activities and explain how to combat the spread of misinformation and design human-centered interventions to empower individuals and communities.

A course for everyone:
This new introductory course is for anyone interested in understanding what an infodemic is, how it significantly affects public health, and what we can do about it now and in the future. Currently available in English, the self-paced course introduces participants to infodemic management through five modules covering infodemic management, misinformation, health crisis fact-checking, theory inoculation and intervention design.

It also allows trainees to develop and practice new skills ready to use thanks to three skills labs dedicated to:

  • use social listening tools
  • At the end of this free course and after passing the final quiz, participants receive a statement of achievement and a shareable digital badge.
