Description
In times of information warfare, reporting in contexts of adversity—whether in Hungary, Palestine, or Ukraine—demands more than journalistic rigour; it requires resilience against a tide of disinformation designed to cover up the truth and manipulate public opinion. This panel will delve into the challenges journalists face when exposing abuses of power, the tactics used by aggressive regimes to distort narratives, and the vital role of independent media in defending democracy and human rights. Journalists and researchers will share firsthand experiences from conflict zones and contested spaces. As independent players, they navigate censorship, propaganda, and threats to uphold their commitment to truth—while resisting the erosion of facts in the face of authoritarianism.
