Fact or Fiction Trivia Evening!

This International Youth Day...

Digitisation offers great opportunities for youth to have an impact in addressing global issues, but not without a great challenge.

The rise of the digital world has also seen the rise of misinformation and fake news.

Where is the line drawn between truth and falsehood? How can we confront the spread of misinformation across the web, and spread awareness for our community?

In order to push forwards with sustainability and youth-led solutions to broad issues, we must learn to combat the spread of misinformation across the web - for ourselves, and for the Azure Beach community.

That's where you come in.

You are invited to attend a trivia evening that tackles these questions and more! Prizes for first, second and third place are up for grabs!

Additionally, there will be a short discussion led by journalist and author Rick Morton, with emphasis on how to spot misinformation, and how to educate others in the community as well.


Date: 12th August, 2024

Time: 4:30pm - 6:00pm

Location: Azure Room, Azure Beach Public Library

Bookings: Book ahead on our library website, Eventbrite, or through the link down below!
