Young Voices Against Disinformation

The De Gasperi Foundation has launched in cooperation with the NATO Public Diplomacy Division and the Centro Studi Internazionali a project aimed at promoting awareness on disinformation, fake news, malign information and information warfare and the negative effects these phenomena can have on NATO countries.

The project involved a total of more than 600 young people, international experts, representatives from international institutions and private stakeholders from Italy and Europe. By organising trainings, practical laboratories, a cycle of webinars and thanks to the launch of a targeted social media campaign we were also able to promote the role NATO is playing in countering the threats and menaces coming from the above-mentioned phenomena.

Here you will find the links to the webinars, trainings, dissemination activities and social media contents realised in the framework of “Young Voices Against Disinformation”.

Thanks to this page, you will be able to get a better understanding of how fake news and disinformation work and how they affect our social and political life.
