The Pathways to Democratic Information Resilience: Civic MIL in the Curriculum and in Society symposium will bring together civil servants, educators, members of civil society, policymakers and researchers.

Identifying credible information is key to democratic decision-making. Participants will engage in dialogue and collaboratively devise tools and strategies which best equip Australian students and citizens with the necessary skills to deal with epistemic pollution in the contemporary information environment.
