Vážené študentky, vážení študenti,
dávame do pozornosti možnosť prihlásiť sa na webinár o dezinformáciách a ochrane životného prostredia, ktorý sa uskutoční 30. marca 2026 o 14:00:
Sometimes there is a lot of talk about the environment, changes that we can see and notice – but some of it is designed to mislead the public. Disinformation is not a new trend, and the intentional spread of false or misleading information about the environment, climate change, or EU climate action can happen. Often it can take different forms, from denial and conspiracy theories to softer, more insidious arguments that seek to "muddy the waters". Those who push climate disinformation deliberately finance, create and spread content to obstruct the EU climate action. For example, they try to cast doubt on the scientific consensus or sway people’s opinions in order to reduce pressure to regulate pollution or prepare for the impacts of climate change.
On 30 March at 14:00 (CET), European Dialogue within the project Green Competences for Sustainable Youth Work is organizing a webinar (duration will be 90-120 minutes taking into account the follow up questions from the audience) which will help you protect yourself from disinformation (not only) about the environment.
Get registered using this form: https://forms.gle/abni3Y4FzYaDpFZe6. Our webinar would be led by Harry Tsatryan.
A participant will:
Be aware
Understand that environmental disinformation is widespread and deliberately designed to mislead. It affects us all, but awareness is the first line of defence.
Be prepared
Equip yourself with the right tools to detect and counter disinformation. Recognise red flags, fact-check sources, and engage critically to stay resilient.
Be informed
Although climate disinformation tries to delay climate action, people are already working to protect their communities with EU support. Meet them and discover our stories.
