The Inaugural Conference on New Media & Democracy
November 21, 2019 - November 22, 2019
The Future of Democracy in the Age of Disinformation
Innovating Policy Solutions for a Networked World
A global, multi-sector conversation exploring the shifting landscape of public diplomacy, cybersecurity and civic engagement in the digital age.
Through keynote speakers and a series of interdisciplinary panels, the conference addressed questions such as: How do state actors now use the internet as a tool to influence public opinion and shape the political terrain, often in malign ways? What are governments doing both to defend against information warfare from without, and control the flow of information from within? And what is the role of the private sector in advancing and ensuring the flow of news and information to a global audience?
