On 20 May 2026, Eesti People to People International participated in the international webinar "Together Against Disinformation & Propaganda", delivered as part of the Erasmus+ project "Combating Online Misinformation to Prevent Radicalisation of Vulnerable Adults."
The event brought together approximately 50 participants from across the European Union and partner countries, including adult educators, researchers, NGO representatives, volunteers, and professionals working with vulnerable communities.
"The webinar highlighted a range of approaches designed to strengthen critical thinking and resilience in today's information environment."
Participating Organisations
The webinar brought together partner organisations from across Europe, each sharing expertise and practical tools developed for this growing challenge.
Introduced the project's objectives and educational methodology, setting the framework for collaborative learning across partner organisations.
Presented an online course designed to help adult educators build misinformation resilience among vulnerable adults.
Showcased the "Final Combat" educational game, developed to help adults recognise and resist manipulation in digital environments.
Demonstrated how AI-powered tools and chatbots can support communities in navigating increasingly complex information environments.
Explored the role of emotional appeals in misinformation and discussed practical approaches to strengthening media literacy and critical thinking skills.
A Growing Challenge Across Europe
The discussion reinforced a growing reality across Europe: misinformation, disinformation, and propaganda continue to present significant challenges for individuals and communities. Addressing these challenges requires not only access to information, but also the skills to evaluate sources, understand emotional influence, and engage thoughtfully with differing viewpoints.
With approximately 50 participants spanning EU member states and partner countries, the webinar demonstrated both the scale of the challenge and the depth of collaborative expertise now being brought to bear on it.
