YPFP Brussels welcomes you to the second YPFP's NATO's series event discussing "Hybrid warfare: Weaponization of Information"  on Wednesday 29 September at 19:00 CEST.

The term ‘weaponization of information’ is often used to describe the highly instrumental use of media, including social media, to further particular interests. By using information, disinformation, or propaganda as a weapon, adversaries can destabilize a population and weaken the target country. For the NATO Alliance, the weaponization of information can threaten to undermine its core values and its deterrence and defense posture.

Join us to discover and explore how NATO is tackling challenges related to dis- and misinformation!

The event is open to both YPFP Members and Non-members.

Speakers:

-Stella Adorf, Head of Situational Awareness at the NATO Situation Centre, NATO HQ

-Larysa Lacko, Counter Hostile Information & Disinformation Officer, Strategic Communication Unit, Public Diplomacy Division (PDD)

Moderator:

Elisa Cherry, Director of Security & Defence, YPFP Brussels
