The rapid pace of digitalisation brings remarkable opportunities, but it also presents urgent challenges—chief among them is the swift spread of disinformation. From the manipulation of political outcomes through deepfakes to the profound societal impact of a few individuals spreading anti-vaccine content, disinformation is reshaping the world in ways that demand our immediate attention.
Consider this: just twelve anti-vaccine activists were responsible for nearly two-thirds of such content on platforms like Facebook and Twitter, fuelling vaccine hesitancy and contributing to political radicalisation. The speed at which disinformation spreads online often leaves truth lagging far behind, posing a global threat that requires collective action.
