FORTITUDE’s Post

FORTITUDE reposted this

On Wednesday, I had the honor of representing FORTITUDE as a guest speaker at the Aspen Institute Germany’s #InfluencersAgainstDisinfo Speakers’ Dinner. During the event, I addressed the question: What elements should be part of an organization’s environment capable of protecting against disinformation campaigns? Drawing on my experience working with companies, NGOs, and business associations, I emphasized three key aspects in my response: 🎯 Infrastructure & Processes 🎯 People & Skills (especially for effective Counterspeech that resonates with target groups) 🎯 Technology & Tools (not only to enhance quality but also to scale the quantity of Counterspeech content) What impressed me most that evening was the exchange of insights and perspectives on the fight against disinformation—from think tanks to influencers—spanning across the globe, from the US to Ukraine. The urgency of these discussions cannot be overstated. A big thank you to the Aspen Institute and all the participants!
