For many years now, fake news in the Philippines has been very rampant even amidst the efforts to fight against it made by different sectors in the community, like the media, teachers, creators and influencers, marketers, industry shapers, and even the government itself.

That is why BaiCon InFest aims to continue its mission to be an avenue for societal change by empowering creators and influencers and even their fans – the rest of the Filipinos – to use each other’s influence in combating fake news and championing the responsible use of social media. We believe that with the right connection comes better digital empowerment!
