We just wrapped up our very first Debunking Misinformation event at Draper Startup House Nepal — the first of its kind in our space! 💡✨ In today’s fast-paced, noisy world, learning how to navigate the flood of information has never been more important. Together with our fantastic panel and engaged audience, we explored practical tools to help us all become more critical, thoughtful consumers of media. Some key takeaways worth carrying forward: 1️⃣ Click Restraint — pause before you click, share, or react. 2️⃣ Critical Ignoring — not everything deserves your attention. 3️⃣ Lateral Reading — go broad before you go deep. 4️⃣ Verify sources & always cross-check facts. 5️⃣ Check the date, context, and author credibility. A huge thank you to our speakers Prerana Marasini Deepak Adhikari and Shashank Shrestha for sharing their insights, and to everyone who joined us for such an energizing discussion. 🙌 Ankur Sharma Bijay C.
