I have been working on a series of projects looking at how young people are using TikTok for social activism and advocacy, including a pilot project funded by Tencent comparing the forms of knowledge being shared on TikTok and Douyin – a journal article is currently under review and a video recording of my first conference talk on the topic is being prepared by the good folks at CCAT.
Last month, I got to share some of this research in an interview with ABC reporter Ariel Bogle.
The write up is available here:
“Students are fighting climate change, one TikTok video at a time.” ABC News, 19 September 2019. <Article>
