Facts vs. Fiction: Sorting Truth from Misinformation | Featuring Yasmin Abdeen | Educator and Corporate Trainer | Thrivable Future: Episode 7
Description
Misinformation is rife within modern society. When sustainability depends on knowing exactly what action is required by society, how do we distinguish the facts from the fiction?
This episode we spoke to Yasmin Abdeen, an educator and corporate trainer who has worked with many organisations on honing their critical thinking and communication skills. She also coaches undergraduate students and conducts career preparation programmes at several institutions of higher learning.
As someone who strives to improve the communication of science, Yasmin encourages thought-provoking discussions in order to help people connect their learning with real-world situations.
In this episode, we touch on some of the barriers to communication - how corporations can influence sustainability practice - and how to sort truth from misinformation.
A Thrivable Future (formerly known as THRIVE Talks) is a podcast series talking to sustainability experts on the important issues affecting our world, and how we can help build a ‘thrivable’ future.
