TRUST combating disinformation: a guide to save democracy is Renew America Together’s signature master class to teach citizens how to identify and combat disinformation. This course will engage participants through a series of activities, videos from a disinformation specialist, and conversations around the history of disinformation and the tools people need to know to identify it.
Master Class
The TRUST curriculum is set up as a virtual or in-person master class. Participants will be guided through a series of videos created by a disinformation specialist intertwined with real-time group activities, conversations, and games.
TRUST is broken into two parts. Part one covers the history and motivation behind disinformation. Part two covers active techniques and critical thinking skills to identify disinformation as it appears online. The goal of the course is for participants to feel confident using and teaching these skills with those in their communities. TRUST is an adaptable curriculum suited for most ages.
