Day 4 is about the word on every marketer’s mouth. Everyone’s focusing on it, but it’s not a focused word. What does it mean exactly? Why does it matter? And how do we do it right? Attend small group workshops about mobile ads, mobile responsive site and mobile app development. Learn about the rapid rise of mobile browsing (and what that means to us) in our interactive globe installation. And hear from Ruth McCarthy, Founder of Mobili Media, about how to get caught up -- and then get ahead.

Disinformation continues to be a threat to our society especially on online platforms, as digital platforms become a daily norm, so are digital offences. It is also evident that deepfakes are becoming increasingly sophisticated in mastering the art of deceiving, this workshop will help in understanding what it is, how it looks like and what it aims to achieve. Real411 and our other tools and apps are there to help combat including, Rover, KnowNews and Open & Disclose.
Join us as we unpack tips and tools to guard yourself against disinformation and deepfakes!
"Media freedom matters not just because it is protected in our constitution, it matters because it is at the heart of democracy. It enables dissension, agreement, diversity of ideas, for ideas to be tested and challenged, for the powerful to be held accountable and for us to give expression to our democracy. Media freedom week seeks to unpack some of these dimensions and to see how it positively impacts our lives."
