We would like to cordially invite you to the public debate titled Digital (Dis)Information Overload that will be held on September 24 in CEVRO Institute in Prague. The debate will be focused on the role of new technologies in disinformation, manipulation, propaganda and deep fake, which is a cause of growing concern of its effects on public discourse and the core values of our society.

What is the digital impact on the society? How can we fight strategic misinformation and strengthen democratic discourse? Can societies and individuals foster their resilience against manipulated information? What are the recommendations for governments, technology companies and civil society?
