Description
Health misinformation has become a growing public health challenge in Nigeria, fueled by the rapid spread of false or misleading content through social media, traditional media, and word-of-mouth communication. In recent years, misinformation has led to dangerous health behaviours, vaccine hesitancy, and a decline in public trust in health institutions. This webinar aims to bring together experts to discuss the sources, drivers, and impact of health misinformation in Nigeria with the goal of improving public health outcomes and strengthening trust in healthcare institutions.
