Very happy to be back all together after so many days.  Especially my thanks to Inter News and dataleads and as a fact shala family member doing 10 trainings with degree students in December, January.  As part of that, the students and the faculty of the college were informed that they have been given good training on miss information.  It is amazing to me how to find false information coming in the media like Whatsapp, Instagram, Facebook etc. Some people with superstitions are destroying their families financially distressed.  The message we receive should be forwarded to another only after everyone has verified.  College Ownership, Faculty Informing.  I am only sharing some of my experience and my thanks to you for giving me this experience

People have many misconceptions about the nature of fake news... as trainers we were equipped with a very good and well designed curriculum to handle various questions about fake news.

मेरा सबसे बेहतरीन अनुभव ये
रहा कि पहली बार मुझे ऐसे लोगों के बीच जाने और कुछ बातचीत करने का मौक़ा मिला जो खूब खुलकर बोलना और बहस करना चाहते थे.
मैंने कुछ ऐसे छात्रों के बीच सेशन किया जो राजनीतिक रूप से कुछ पार्टियों के समर्थक थे और हमारी ट्रेनिंग के बाद तमाम बातचीत हुई उनसे और तथ्यात्मक रूप से खूब बातचीत हुई और अब वो लोग अपने स्तर पर फैक्ट चेक करते हैं और फेक न्यूज़ जैसी चीजों पर बात करते हैं.

# data[].attributes.body
मैंने Nov में FactShala ट्रेनिंग में भाग लिया था। इससे पहले मुझे फेक न्यूज को पहचानने का टूल मालूम नहीं था। हालांकि ट्रेनिंग Eng में होने की वजह से मुझे समझने में काफी दिक्कत आई, लेकिन फिर भी बहुत हद तक इस क्षेत्र में जागरूक हुआ हूं।

Many did not even realise that mis/disinformation was a problem. Being in the training people realised that they were victims of misinformation. Those who knew that it exists, they did not know that there are ways to check and verify. My best experience is when past trainees request me for more training sessions fir their peer groups. Women especially have discovered that they can educate their children and guide them and their family members. My best experiences are when people pro actively say that they would educate others.

To be precise and short I would say the sheer experience of
1) interacting with people around
2) hearing their stories and being able on some level to help them or
3) at least aware them of the cons of digitalization
4) and give them a platform to share their incidents and experiences which can be a learning for all, have been the best experience.

The best ever experience of the training was the multiple request from various institutions to conduct future trainings for all their students in a frequent mode; A number of requests from various schools s as per the feedback of the trainees attended in nearby institutions.

It was wonderful to share the knowledge. I also got  to know the kind of problems fake news has led them into. With empowering them with information to look into the posts shared, the participants were very motivated and agreed to check the facts before forwarding further.

For me all my training sessions are best as they were unique in their own way with enriching experience for me. I have so far conducted 13 trainings, out of which training of sex workers in Sonagachi, Asia's largest red light area and training of Monpa community in Tawang, Indo-China Border touched me as well, as I felt honored to reach out to them with something which can empower them, as received feedback from them. I also trained tea garden workers and members of LGBTQ Communities. All the sessions were interactive and received. Apart from this helped Kolkata Police in debunking numerous online fake news.

The training session with ASHA workers is the best one, coincidently the same day before my session SMO motivated them for Covid vaccination and immediately after my session except 2 or 3 all got the jab.

I do have many best experience,
* Training provided by Factshala itself was one of the best online trainings I have ever attended. Such a huge complicated topic through online was great.
* I trained fishermen community at Rameswaram Island on factcheck. One my trainings had 30 female candidates. Out of my five training sessions, that was the best..their response and knowledge was admirable.
* Good to be in the group even after the project is over.
