Influencers accused of exploiting Nepal flood survivors for social media engagement

Content creators face criticism for using disaster footage to boost followings rather than provide genuine aid.

· 1 min de lecture · langue: en

Social media influencers in Nepal are being accused of exploiting flood survivors by documenting disaster scenes primarily to increase followers and engagement, according to reporting by Al Jazeera. Critics say the creators, sometimes referred to as "aid influencers," prioritize content generation over meaningful assistance to affected communities.

The accusations highlight ongoing tensions around disaster coverage on social platforms, where the line between awareness-raising and exploitation can blur, particularly when creators lack established aid credentials or direct accountability to affected populations.
