Mitigating disinformation at the crossroads of ethics, politics and communication
2025-10-28 09:00 - 12:00
We would like to invite you to join us on 28 April at RTL Lëtzebuerg to participate in the workshop “Mitigating Disinformation at the crossroads of ethics, politics and communication”.
Disinformation is widely regarded today as a major challenge for democratic societies. Yet efforts to address it inevitably raise ethical, political, and communication questions, including the risk of generating unintended consequences.
This workshop brings together ethical thinkers and practitioners to reflect on concerns that often remain implicit in our everyday practices and policies of disinformation mitigation. By convening researchers, practitioners, educators, journalists, and policy makers, the event aims to foster critical dialogue and to identify practices that balance effectiveness with ethical responsibility.
This workshop welcomes educators, policy makers, media professionals, disinformation analysts and researchers, and other stakeholders involved in the mitigation of disinformation, especially in Luxembourg and Belgium.

For more details about the full day’s program click here.

In the afternoon after the workshop, an event will be held at Université de Luxembourg where people are invited to meet professional fact-checkers and experts in disinformation mitigation: https://www.uni.lu/fhse-en/events/what-the-fact/

Phishing is evolving — are your skills keeping up?
We’re excited to launch a Phishing Analysis Workshop designed for IT professionals ready to go beyond awareness and get hands-on with how phishing campaigns really work.
