AMWIK conducts advanced digital skills training for content creators

As technology becomes more widely available, more awareness training is needed to repress the prevalence of online harassment. To achieve this, AMWIK partnered with DW Akademie for a two-day advanced digital training for content creators.

Research shows that online abuse against public figures and content creators is often misunderstood as inevitable and generally an occupational hazard. Over the past several years, women who are highly visible in the media appear to be disproportionately targeted by online abuse and disinformation attacks along racial, ethnic, religious and physical and marital lines.

The content creators were challenged to provide reliable and credible information as a response to the upsurge of misinformation and disinformation, especially in an election year.
