Truth-proofing your communications

Disinformation defence:

a practical workshop for local government, utility and infrastructure communicators

Disinformation doesn't wait for you to be ready.

And reactive debunking rarely works.

Join our workshop to learn how to get ahead of misinformation before it lands. Learn proactive techniques supported by research from University of Cambridge, Google Jigsaw, the BBC and the World Health Organization.

Dr Barbara Ryan brings experience of 40 years spanning journalism, consulting and academia

She digs deep into the latest research and translates it into sharp, practical communication planning and skills that you can use straight away.

Rebecca Riggs brings 15+ years of  communication expertise in crisis and disaster across government, emergency services and corporate sectors.

A dynamic and engaging workshop leader, she turns complex strategy into practical skills — leaving everyone in the audience informed, energised and ready to act.

In 3.5 hours, you'll:

  • Discover the evidence for PRE-bunking — and why it works where DE-bunking doesn't

  • Learn how to identify and get ahead of rumours, myths and coordinated disinformation

  • Workshop your organisation's own disinformation comms strategy, tools and messaging

At $600pp ($500pp for groups of 3+), it's a small investment to protect your organisation's credibility.
