Can hope overcome hate and misinformation? How do we communicate hope? Join us as we put this and more to Conleth Burns, from More in Common

As we leave 2021 behind, it’s clear that 2022 will present us with fresh challenges. But our response to these challenges are at risk of being damaged by increasing cynicism and pessimism, exacerbated by our polluted, online information environment.Can hope beat hate and lies? And if so, how do we communicate hope? The Misinformation Cell is joined by Conleth Burns from More in Common, as we ask him about their latest project on the communication of hope and imagining a positive story of tomorrow.More in Common is an international initiative to strengthen democratic societies by countering social division and polarisation. Conleth Burns is an associate at More in Common who has been involved in MiC’s project on hope: The Endless Sea, the purpose of which is to understand the aspirations, ideas and visions that might help shape a positive story of tomorrow.We’ll be exploring:<ul><li>Why negativity seems so prevalent online and in the media.</li></ul><ul><li>Whether spreading division and misinformation is easier than building unity and hope.</li></ul><ul><li>What we can learn from people who’ve communicated hope well?</li></ul><ul><li>What can communications professionals do to communicate hope effectively?</li></ul>You can read More in Common's report on communicating hope, 'The Endless Sea' here: https://www.moreincommon.com/media/bttdgl1b/the-endless-sea-imagining-a-story-of-tomorrow.pdf
