On September 25 at 10:00, the Independent Anti-Corruption Commission (NAKO) will host an event titled “Democracies Under Fire: How Ukraine, EU, U.S., and Taiwan Defend the Information Space.”
During the discussion, we will analyze the current challenges of information warfare through the lens of international experience. What approaches to countering disinformation are being applied in Ukraine, the EU, the U.S., and Taiwan? How can we detect and neutralize information threats? We will review concrete cases — from anti-Ukrainian propaganda in Chinese social media to the suspension of cooperation between the U.S. and the EU in countering disinformation from Russia, China, and Iran.
