About this event

  • Event lasts 1 hour

The Center for the Governance of Change (CGC) at IE University invites you to this NATO-sponsored event to present our new report on countering disinformation campaigns by foreign powers in Africa.

The report, "Countering Foreign Information Manipulation and Interference in Africa", has been produced by the CGC, sponsored by NATO, and written by Professor Carlos Galán (Director of the Master in Intelligence Analysis and Cyberintelligence at Universidad Antonio de Nebrija).

The event will feature a conversation with global affairs experts specialized in Africa (a full agenda will be announced soon). We will examine the methods used by foreign powers to carry out their disinformation campaigns, their motivations and means of dissemination, and how to counter them.

The event will be followed by a networking cocktail.
