[QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 51123, member: 636"] Pakistan's biggest names gathered in the capital to battle fake news that plagues social media platforms nationwide. UNESCO teamed up with Media Foundation 360, SZABIST University Islamabad, and Punjab University's Digital Media Department for the landmark summit. Federal Minister Prof. Ahsan Iqbal grabbed the microphone during the keynote speech and demanded urgent action against digital lies. The politician promised to deliver the new framework straight to government leaders for immediate consideration. Media literacy experts called the meeting a game changer for fighting online deception. Hamza Sawati from UNESCO kicked off discussions by praising partner organizations while stressing the need for smarter digital habits. Dr. Savera Mujib Shami from Punjab University laid out detailed recommendations gathered from meetings across multiple provinces and districts. Academic leaders emphasized how universities must teach students to spot false information before it spreads like wildfire. Canadian diplomat Daniel Arsenault applauded Pakistan's team effort to boost media literacy skills among citizens. The collaborative approach impressed international observers monitoring the country's progress. Heavy hitters from journalism including Asma Shirazi, Mohammad Malick, Amir Ilyas Rana, and Hamid Mir backed the initiative during heated panel discussions. PFUJ President Afzal Butt joined fellow reporters in demanding educational reforms to protect democracy from misinformation attacks. Government officials, university professors, media veterans, and civil society groups shared ideas throughout the packed conference. The comprehensive policy blueprint aims to strengthen democratic institutions while building public resistance against digital manipulation. Participants left the summit confident that informed citizens represent the best defense against online propaganda campaigns. [/QUOTE]
