Emerge Holds New ‘Unwrap Your Potential’ Masterclass Series; Empowering Entrepreneurs With Exclusive Tiktok Masterclass For Business Success

  

Emerge continues to champion digital innovation with its recently-concluded event — the ‘Unwrap Your Potential’ Masterclass Series, “TikTok for Entrepreneurs: A Fireside Chat on Growing Your Business.”

In partnership with TikTok’s Agency Partner Manager, Ou, Chung-Ying or “Roger”, the event aimed at providing entrepreneurs and professionals with game-changing insights vis-à-vis harnessing Tiktok as a powerful tool to usher in business growth.

During the event, Emerge Director of Marketing and Client Services Jim Merino served as the moderator of the engagement, leading forth the open conversations that enable attendees to delve into the strategies and ad products that Tiktok offers. Emphasizing on the unique approach of the session, he shared, “For this edition, it was actually initiated by our TikTok Agency Partner Manager, Roger, who offered his time and knowledge to share the latest updates in TikTok and its ad products to our pre-selected guests. Next time, we’ll make it bigger but still have the same intimacy like a fireside chat where open conversations are welcome.”

Director Merino likewise shared that the masterclass stemmed from the commitment of Emerge to impel entrepreneurs, “It’s aligned with our empowerment program, “Unwrap Your Potential”, and we pulled this initiative from our Masterclass Series because we want to share the power and knowledge of using TikTok to grow their business. We want to open their minds that other platforms are available for them.”

Now that the platform, Tiktok, continues to dominate the video content and digital-era way of business landscape, its crucial role in digital marketing and entrepreneurship cannot be overemphasized, as what Director Merino said, “Since we’re in the video era, TikTok is one of the key players and one of the fastest growing platform in the Philippines. As marketers and business owners we must be agile to adapt to the changes in buying behaviors and consumer preferences. You should be present where your customers currently are.”

Looking forward, Emerge is fully driven to forge partnerships with more business owners to elevate their businesses and help them focus more on other important things,  “When you entrust Emerge to handle your TikTok ads headaches, you’ll focus more on the other important aspects of your business.”

He added, “If you already had an impression of TikTok, forget it and throw it. You can’t expect growth when you close your door to opportunities such as Tiktok ads. But with the right partner, you can be at ease and just wait for results.”

For entrepreneurs out there, gear up as Emerge is about to deliver more future-forward results  in your business, as Director Jim passionately remarked, “More special programs and initiatives are coming so stay tuned! We have so many areas in marketing both digital and traditional that we haven’t explored yet so we are excited on opening this door for everyone.”

Media and Information Literacy: A Human Right in the Digital Age”

  

This article will discuss how Media and Information Literacy (MIL) empowers individuals. In this context, MIL is used on how it supports human rights. When people are empowered through their fundamental rights, they have the protection against government interference. Hence, this empowerment promotes democratic participation in our information-rich society.

Introduction: Media and Information Literacy supports Human Rights

Through the vast ocean of digital information, Media and Information Literacy (MIL) has become an indispensable skill set. It is essential to learn this subject because people are exposed to a variety of information, and some are harmful.

That is why MIL empowers individuals to critically engage with media sources. Hence, it allows people to make informed decisions. As a result, it allows active participation in societal affairs.

However, what is MIL? This concept encompasses a range of skills essential for effectively accessing, evaluating, and utilizing information:

1. Access and Location of Information: This skill allows individual to get valuable information at credible sources and at the most recent information.

2. Evaluation of Information: This skill assesses the credibility, accuracy, and objectivity of the material shown

3. Creating and Producing Content: These skill set develops another set of skills in producing content

4. Participating in Media: This skill allows engagement with creators and the understanding media systems

Now, why is this concept essential in this modern digital landscape? Since it is easy for people to draw conclusion due to the proximity of information near their fingertips, it is imperative that they can:

·      Combat misinformation and disinformation

·      Discern credible sources

·      Navigate the digital landscape safely and responsibly

MIL as a Fundamental Human Right

International Frameworks

Interestingly, MIL is increasingly recognized as a fundamental human right by international frameworks such as the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and the European Convention on Human Rights. Acknowledging MIL as a human right would realize other interrelated human rights such asL

- The Right to Express Themselves Freely

- The Right to Access of Diverse Sources of Information

- The Freedom to Make Informed Decisions

The Role of MIL in Promoting Democratic Participation

Empowering Citizens

Understand that MIL develops critical thinking skills based on the credible information that people could gain access. When they are informed, the better they participate in society. It also fosters informed participation in democratic processes by:

- Equipping citizens with analytical skills for public discourse

- Enabling critical analysis of media messages

- Enhancing civic engagement and government accountability

Case Studies and Success Stories

Numerous MIL initiatives worldwide have demonstrated the power of these skills in promoting democratic participation. These projects have shown how MIL can:

- Increase overall media literacy

- Promote transparency in governance

- Enhance civic engagement at local and national levels

The Bottomline

Media and Information Literacy is not just a set of skills. It's also a crucial human right that supports access to information and democratic participation. As we continue to navigate the complex information landscape of the digital age, the promotion of MIL becomes increasingly important.

Call to Action

To ensure that all individuals can engage meaningfully in society, we must:

1. Advocate for continued MIL education and initiatives

2. Encourage collaboration among governments, educational institutions, and civil society

3. Support global efforts to promote MIL and empower individuals

By prioritizing Media and Information Literacy, we can build a more informed, engaged, and democratic society for all.
