Sulong! Wikang Filipino at mga Wika ng Hilagang Luzon: Wika ng Katotohanan sa Panahon ng Disimpormasyon Nasalungguhitan sa mga pangyayari sa bansa at mundo nitong mga nakaraang taon ang pagkalat ng impormasyon. Nariyan ang impormasyong mula sa mga institusyong panlipunan gaya ng pamahalaan, militar, unibersidad, mga relihiyon, at midya. Sa patuloy na pag-unlad at paglaganap ng teknolohiya at social media, inuulan din tayo ng ibaโt ibang impormasyon tungkol sa mga sakit, baha, krudo, kuryente, korapsiyon, digmaan, at genocide, kasabay ang ibaโt ibang dance challenge, prank, trend, at vlog tungkol sa pang-araw-araw na buhay ng isang mamamayan sa ika-21 siglo. Ang ganitong paglaganap ng impormasyon ay naisasagawa dahil sa wika na maaaring hubugin at iangkop sang-ayon sa hinahangad ng nagpapalaganap: maglantad o magkubli ng katotohanan, pabulaanan o lalo pang pasidhiin ang kasinungalingan, nang hindi sinasadya o walang kamalayan. Mahalaga sa pagdalumat ng ganitong diskurso kapwa ang paggamit at pagkonsumo ng wika. Samahan ang Kolehiyo ng Sining at Komunikasyon ng Unibersidad ng Pilipinas Baguio sa pag-aambag sa unawa natin sa buhay ng impormasyon! Bilang pakikiisa sa pagdiriwang ng Buwan ng Wika ngayong Agosto, inilulunsad ang PISTA NG MGA WIKA 2026 na mayroong temang โSulong! Wikang Filipino at mga Wika ng Hilagang Luzon: Wika ng Katotohanan sa Panahon ng Disimpormasyonโ.
