Our Webinars

Replay of a webinar co-hosted by EU DisinfoLab and French start-up Tremau about content moderation for smaller players with the upcoming DSA.

On July 5, the co-authors of the DSA User-Guide answered questions on the DSA tools, rights and application in the fight against disinformation.

In light of the Trilogue negotiations, we reflected on the importance of a strong redress mechanism in the Digital Services Act with some exceptional guests. This online discussion featured Frances Haugen, former product manager at Facebook and Whistleblower, and Emma Winberg, the widow of James Le Mesurier, who was a co-founder of the Syrian rescue group the White Helmets, and director of the non-profit MaydayRescue Foundation.

We are pleased to invite you to our next webinar with Avaaz, the global campaigning and research organisation. We will talk about fresh revelations surrounding Facebook’s enforcement policies, the US elections and the implications for regulating disinformation in the EU.
