Across Asia, the climate crisis is intensifying, yet public debate around climate policies and environmental accountability is increasingly shaped by misinformation, coordinated disinformation campaigns and information manipulation. These dynamics undermine public trust, weaken democratic debate, and delay urgent climate action.
This regional dialogue brings together journalists, media organisations, fact-checkers, researchers, civil society actors, and technology experts to examine how climate misinformation circulates across Asian information ecosystems and its impacts on Indigenous Peoples. Building on recent research, the event will explore emerging narratives, identify patterns and actors, and highlight opportunities for stronger, collaborative responses.
The dialogue serves as a starting point for forward-looking regional collaboration, with a focus on responsible climate reporting, strengthening information ecosystems, and placing the voices and knowledge of communities most affected by environmental change at the centre.
