SUMMARY:The Weaponization of Disinformation in Canada
CLASS:PUBLIC
DESCRIPTION:Digital disinformation presents a mounting threat to\, and chal
 lenge\nfor\, liberal democracies. Global events like Brexit\, electoral\ni
 nterference\, Russia’s invasion of Ukraine\, and the ongoing COVID-19\np
 andemic\, have made the abstract threat of digital disinformation into\na 
 distinct reality. The shifting global balance of power\,\ncharacterized b
 y growing multipolarity\, is unfolding alongside the\nexpansion of tools\,
  strategies\, and spaces for adversarial states and\nnon-state actors to e
 xpand their influence\, disrupt multilateral\ndiplomacy\, threaten liberal
  democratic norms and values\, and\nde-legitimize a rules-based global ord
 er. \n\nThis interdisciplinary workshop will help to bring together aware
 ness\namong the academic community\, industry\, civil society\, and govern
 ment\,\noutlining and assessing the evolving threat of digital disinformat
 ion\nwhile also providing direction and guidance on how to protect liberal
 \ndemocracies like Canada from weaponized digital disinformation.
