Narratives Used as Weapon for Autocrats and War Leaders – Can They Also Be Our Strongest Defense?

May 27, 2024

Before starting a war, you need to win the narrative. In war the propaganda is a key weapon. That´s why autocrats, dictators and war leaders take control over media, change laws and put journalists, artists and authors in jail. In this session we will talk about the new tools autocrats have got in their toolbox, and how we can recognize their stories and fight them back.

The outcome from the workshop will be documented.
