I fundamentally believe that ignorance and gaps in education remain.
Countering ignorance requires a three‑pronged approach. First, we need to promote the spread of quality information. People must have access to straightforward and sound content and reliable data. Most people act in good faith.
Second, we need to run awareness campaigns and talk to people. We must have a collective discussion on this issue. We must overcome the echo chambers, where we talk only to people who share our opinion. We must talk to everyone, in general.
Third, we need to talk about education for both young people and the general public. We need to provide access to training in digital literacy, sex education and the concepts of gender and sexual identity. We also need to provide ways to counter misinformation and recognize platforms that provide unbiased information. This would help curb the current rise of hate.
