EDMO BELUX 2.0 | Countering disinformation, raising democratic resilience
September 7 – September 8
The final conference for EDMO BELUX 2.0:
Based in Belgium and Luxembourg, we take the opportunity to reflect how our efforts across fact-checking, media literacy, research investigations to monitor and respond to disinformation raise resilience in democratic societies. In particular we seek to contribute policy evidence of societal threats and responses to disinformation. […]
This conference welcomes fact-checkers, media professionals, media literacy practitioners, educators, disinformation analysts and researchers, policy makers and other stakeholders involved in the mitigation of disinformation, especially in Luxembourg and Belgium. The main sessions of the conference will take place in English, while parallel sessions can be organised in French or English.
EDMO BELUX 2.0 is a multidisciplinary hub that unites fact-checkers, disinformation analysts, media literacy organizations, and academics. Together, we strive to counteract the spread of disinformation, ensuring the accuracy and reliability of information in our communities. We support a wide and diverse community dedicated to safeguarding democratic processes in Belgium and Luxembourg.
