Information Wars: Democracy and the Disinformation Age
About This Event
Disinformation has become one of the defining challenges facing democracies, eroding public trust, influencing elections, and testing whether open societies can defend themselves without compromising the freedoms they seek to protect. Europe has become a laboratory for this struggle, with countries across the continent confronting different forms of the threat. What does disinformation look like in different parts of Europe? As the continent prepares for another wave of elections, which approaches are proving most effective at combating disinformation? And what can Europe’s experiences reveal about strengthening democratic resilience on both sides of the Atlantic? Join Paweł Markiewicz and Ari Tabatabai for a discussion on disinformation and the future of democratic discourse.
This program is held in partnership with the Consulate General of France and the Consulate General of Poland in Chicago.
Following the conversation, please join us for a reception.
