Interest in Digital Care

My interest in digital care stems from recognizing the pressing global issues we face today, such as the refugee crisis and escalating conflicts between nations. These challenges present unique opportunities to leverage digital tools for advocacy and communication. However, the rise of AI and the increasing government-centric policies has complicated information dissemination, leading to global polarization in narratives—as evidenced by the reporting on Ukraine and Gaza, or even the refugee situation in Hong Kong. At this critical juncture, I believe scholars and authors play a vital role in combating misinformation to uphold truth, which is fundamental to humanitarianism and human dignity.
