Over the past several years, Ukraine has been at the forefront of counteracting disinformation campaigns and information warfare emanating from the Russian Federation. The country experienced the impact of propaganda, disinformation, and hybrid war earlier than most European or American societies. While unique, Ukraine's experience holds broader lessons for how to tackle these emerging phenomena.
For this conversation, an expert panel will build on findings from Internews Ukraine's recently published book, Words and Wars: Ukraine Facing Russian Propaganda. Participants will discuss how Ukraine is tackling propaganda and disinformation, lessons that can be learned from Ukraine's experience, and how the EU, Ukraine, media professionals, and other partners can work together to help populations in different parts of the world differentiate fact from fiction.
