About this event

In an era where information is just a click away, social media plays a crucial role in shaping public opinion, influencing voter literacy, and driving political engagement. Flick Talk Session 02 explores the intersection of technology, media, and democracy, equipping students with the critical thinking skills needed to navigate the digital landscape responsibly.

This session features two expert-led talks: The Role of Social Media in Improving Voter’s Literacy and Political Engagement and Analyzing Platforms and Policies of Candidates. The first talk delves into how social media can be a tool for both empowerment and misinformation, teaching participants to assess sources critically, engage in meaningful discourse, and make well-informed political decisions. The second talk provides a structured approach to evaluating candidates based on their platforms, policies, and track records, allowing voters to make choices aligned with their values and the nation’s needs.

Through insightful discussions, news article analysis, and interactive engagement, this session encourages students to harness social media for informed decision-making and to recognize the weight of their choices in shaping the country’s future.
