Understanding Misinformation and Disinformation
Misinformation and disinformation play significant roles in shaping public perception, especially in the context of crisis management and resilience. Misinformation typically refers to inaccuracies shared without malicious intent, often spreading due to carelessness or lack of verification. In contrast, disinformation is intentionally crafted to manipulate or mislead audiences, serving specific agendas. Recognizing the distinction between these two is essential for individuals and organizations in the resilience industry, as the proliferation of these false narratives can impact decision-making and public trust.
