Reflecting on yesterday’s #TCGlobalSummit and minds like Prof. Tawana Kupe, Prof Mcebisi Ndletyana, @sthembete and @yushan_wu are exactly what our beloved country needs to go ahead and thrive.
Evidence-based journalism, collaboration, looking for the in-between stories (nuance), journalistic ethics, great editing, embracing conflict - this is how we navigate our post-trust world #PanelDiscussion #TCGlobalSummit

Work of @TC_Africa - combining academic #rigor with journalistic #flair - is so important in an age of misinformation! Academic institutions should very actively promote and contribute to this model! #integrity #TCGlobalSummit @FutureAfricaUP @UPTuks

Some academics generate knowledge that is of no value to their own communities. If they want their research to be useful, experts must engage with the people #PanelDiscussion #TCGlobalSummit
If people don't have the right information, there is likelihood of creating misconceptions. Transparency is key. Yu-Shan Wu, @WitsUniversity @Journ_SA #TCGlobalSummit
We should learn from the manufacturers of fake news - they go to where the conversations are happening, and use those insights to appeal to people's emotions #PanelDiscussion #TCGlobalSummit
How do you report on reality that's stranger than fiction - Prof John Ogude #tcglobalsummit
Don't say it's fake news. Call it want it is - lies, misinformation etc. - Lee Mwiti @AfricaCheck #tcglobalsummit
“Admitting you don’t know is a prerequisite to learning and knowing” Prof Mcebisi Ndletyana @mcebisin Also a prerequisite to demystifying science and journalism. We don’t always know or know all #tcglobalsummit @FutureAfricaUP @UPTuks
Big name corporates inadvertently fund fake news when their adverts appear on fake news sites - Prof Mercy Mpinganjira @go2uj #tcglobalsummit
#tcglobalsummit one day I hope to be as brilliant as the people in this panel #fighting #FakeNews #FakeNewsMedia
#TCGlobalsummit @MISTRA_SA ‘s prof Mcebisi telling the panel the value of saying “I don’t know” and how it helps one to actually learn something.
'Conflict is good because it opens up new frontiers of knowledge'- Prof Mcebisi Ndletyana @go2uj #tcglobalsummit
This => Prof. Ndletyana: we need to rediscover humility and have the power to say “I don’t know” #TCGlobalSummit
