If you’ve ever been faced with a question that put you in a difficult spot—a sensitive or controversial topic—you know how hard it is to answer it.

 

That’s why we decided to organize this workshop, led by Mandy Ducy from the agency Impakt Scientifik, during which she taught us how to stay calm, respond clearly, avoid misunderstandings, and stay within our area of expertise.

About fifteen members from our various universities (Université de Montréal, Université Laval, McGill University), as well as collaborators (DSAHR, Centre ACER), participated in a day packed with theory and practical exercises that prepared us to combat fake news and biased information.
