​PROMPT has leveraged AI to detect narratives that slip past conventional monitoring tools. We've been analyzing patterns across media outlets, social networks, and Wikipedia in eight languages, focusing on three critical areas: the war in Ukraine, LGBTQIA+ rights, and the 2024 European elections.

An opportunity to engage directly with the research team, see the disinformation-tracking tools in action, and discuss how this work can support those fighting disinformation in Europe.

Program: Thursday 26 Feb. 8:30-12:30

  • Welcome coffee

  • Testimony 2: Decoding the Digital Age

  • Coffee break

  • Roundtable 2: A whole-of-society approach for the European Democratic Shield: wishful thinking? - "Whole-of-society" is a buzzword but may remain wishful thinking when building an alliance of 'unlikely partners' using a shared grammar and workflows to fight disinformation.

  • Product showcase: Wikipedia and disinformation risks during elections: introducing the Wikipedia Sensitivity Barometer - Wikipedia is a target of, and a shield against disinformation. We introduce the Wikipedia Sensitivity Barometer to help flag information manipulation attempts, with findings from the French and Moldovan elections.

  • Roundtable 3: 'Rogue for good': shaping counter-propaganda in democratic contexts - Analysis is needed, but so is action. How do we support ethical counter-influence and influence operations in liberal democracies?
