Sometimes, making a difference online starts with simply taking a moment to pause.
Think. Check. Then post.
Over the past months, young content creators from across Nigeria have been learning, creating and putting responsible digital engagement into practice.
Through training camps in Kano, Enugu and Lagos, FIAP worked with Gen Z influencers and content creators on information integrity, responsible online engagement and ways to counter mis- and disinformation.
On Friday, Ambassador Jens Ole Bach Hansen alongside our Senior Programme Manager, Hilda Ayejimiwo and our Communications Officer, Anna Chigozie got to see where that journey led at a creative exhibition showcasing the work they produced after the training.
And there was plenty to see.
From thought-provoking spoken word performances and articles to fact-checking web platforms, artwork, music, digital campaigns and much more, the young creators showed not only their creativity, but also their strong interest in encouraging more young people to use social media responsibly.
Denmark recently joined the European Union in Nigeria's Support to the Ecowas - Cedeao in Peace, Security and Governance (EPSG) Project, with a particular focus on tackling electoral mis and disinformation and supporting credible, inclusive and transparent electoral processes in Nigeria, Benin and The Gambia.

Today serves as a good day to remind us that before you share anything, .
P.S: Ambassador Jens Ole left the exhibition with a few new Gen Z slangs in his vocabulary like “aura for aura” and “peace is steeze.” 😄
