SUMMARY:The EU Code of Practice on disinformation: evaluating VLOPSE compliance and effectiveness
DESCRIPTION:In this webinar\, Trisha Meyer (co-author) will present the findings of the recently published EDMO report on the compliance and effectiveness of Very Large Online Platforms and Search Engines’ (VLOPSE) actions to implement the Code of Practice (now Code of Conduct) on Disinformation\, focusing on Meta (Facebook and Instagram)\, Google (Search and YouTube)\, Microsoft (Bing and LinkedIn)\, and TikTok. Large online platforms submit transparency reports twice a year\, detailing their efforts to meet commitments under the Code. The report focuses on key areas such as supporting media literacy\, enhancing fact-checking partnerships\, improving transparency\, and enabling research\, as reported in 2024. The assessment examines the extent to which these seven VLOPSE services have met core commitments under the CoPD and evaluates the real-world impact of selected actions and initiatives taken under the Code. \n  \nSpeaker \nTrisha Meyer | Professor in Digital Governance and Participation; Co-Lead·Vrije Universiteit Brussel; EDMO BELUX \n\nTrisha Meyer is an Associate Professor in Digital Governance and Participation at the Brussels School of Governance of the Vrije Universiteit Brussel\, where she leads the Research Centre for Digitalisation\, Democracy and Innovation. Trisha is also principal investigator of EDMO BELUX\, a co-funded hub on research\, fact-checking and media literacy on online disinformation in Belgium and Luxembourg. Trisha researches the regulatory push toward and societal consequences of tech platforms taking proactive (automated) measures to moderate online content. A second closely related research strand pertains to participatory governance in digital policy. In recent years\, her research has focused on the balancing act necessary when developing responses to tackle disinformation online.
