Recognising manipulated content doesn’t always stop people sharing it. Sometimes it reinforces a political belief or a sense of identity. Drawing on Hungary, Sudan and Uganda, Thomson’s new report challenges assumptions about how to counter disinformation and explores why responses need to reflect local realities.

What does it take to make societies more resilient to disinformation? More than 50 people joined our session at @ForumAthens to consider this question. Independent journalism, people’s ability to assess information critically, digital platform design and effective governance need to work together to reduce the impact of false and manipulated information. Thank you to our speakers, our moderator Gary Mundy and everyone who joined the discussion. We’ll share a full report next week. #AthensDemocracyForum2026 #InformationResilience #Disinformation 📷 : Aris Messinis / Athens Democracy Forum
