Twitter is teaming up with UNESCO to promote Global Media and Information Literacy Week 2018, which began Wednesday and runs until Oct. 31.
The social network created a hashtag-triggered emoji for the week, for #ThinkBeforeSharing, which director of public policy, Europe Karen White described in a blog post as a global call to action to encourage people to think before sharing content online.
