SUMMARY:Combatting disinformation: The importance of partnership between Japan and Canada
DESCRIPTION:In today’s digital landscape\, disinformation spreads rapidly\, influencing public opinion\, undermining trust in institutions\, and threatening democratic stability. As malicious actors refine their tactics\, the need for coordinated international action has never been more urgent. Disinformation poses a direct challenge to democracy\, national security\, and social cohesion. \nThe Macdonald-Laurier Institute will host a webinar on the collaborative efforts between Japan and Canada to counter disinformation in an era of increasing digital threats. As misinformation and fake news continue to threaten our democratic institutions\, national security\, and public trust\, international co-operation is more critical than ever. \nThis session will bring together experts\, policy-makers\, and researchers to discuss strategies\, best practices\, and joint initiatives aimed at strengthening information integrity. Topics will include threat actors and their targets in the Canada and Japan\, countermeasures (regulatory measures\, debunking\, prebunking\, strategic communications\, media literacy programs\, etc.)\, technological advancements\, and cross-border collaborations to reduce the harm of disinformation. \n\n\nRegister for the event here. \nPlease note\, that all registered attendees will receive a post-event recording of the webinar. If you are unable to tune in live\, you can watch the recording at your convenience. \n\n\n\n\nSpeakers
