Details

Social media has permanently changed the way people communicate in most areas of their activity. Their impact on the world today is of interest to different specialists. The seminar will focus on their impact and role in today’s crisis, such as internal conflicts (including coups, armed rebellions), international (including open armed conflict, hybrid warfare) and supranational (eg terrorism). Referring to the current examples (including the use of social media in the propaganda of ISIS, a failed coup in Turkey) participants will attempt to answer the question of their possible use to build lasting peace and security. The subject of discussion will be the European Parliament resolution. The resolution stresses that the EU needs to counter disinformation campaigns and propaganda from countries, such as Russia, and non-state actors, like Daesh. The document recommends, among others, strengthening of the EU Task Force for strategic communications and means of dissemination of knowledge and the formation of ability to use social media.
