"Technology, Disinformation, and Fake News"

Fake news and disinformation are beginning to have a significant impact on democratic politics in the 21st century. While digital innovations and social media provide new avenues for citizens to engage with their governments, they also provide a public platform for disinformation campaigns, which can have negative effects on the quality of public discourse. This session will consider how parliaments can develop strategies for engaging online that mitigate these new risks while still upholding standards of openness.
