Working meeting as part of the EU-HYBNET project – key findings

Reading Time: mins

The purpose of the event, which took place on February 28th in Warsaw, was primarily to discuss the steps related to counteracting disinformation, media education, citizens’ resistance and strategic communication.

Media literacy and critical thinking are invariably cited as the most urgent needs to effectively combat the impact of manipulated information on citizens. Raising awareness from an early age has a positive impact on the strengthening of society’s resilience, despite the fact that there is no distinguished group that is the most susceptible to manipulation. It is important to build the competences of fact-checking. Particular attention was paid to the fact that media education should be comprehensively covered by journalists, including journalism students.

Therefore, the conclusion is that we need systemic solutions. Although grassroots initiatives have a considerable impact on raising awareness of threats connected to the fake-news, the effectiveness of organized activities contributes to the increase in trust in public institutions. This is the reason why the coordinated cooperation of central administration and local governments with other institutions dealing with the subject of counteracting disinformation is so important.

    Starszy Specjalista ds. Komunikacji

    Dołączyłem do Platformy w listopadzie 2017 roku. Przez długi czas byłem odpowiedzialny za realizację krajowych i europejskich projektów związanych z bezpieczeństwem. W związku z dynamicznym rozwojem PPBW oraz powstaniem Działu Komunikacji, zająłem się promocją i upowszechnianiem rezultatów naszych działań.

    Obecnie koordynuję komunikację projektów finansowanych przez UE z obszaru bezpieczeństwa. Do moich obowiązków należy również zarządzanie kanałami online PPBW oraz wspieranie zespołu w bieżących pracach.

    Posiadam szeroki zakres umiejętności, który pozwala mi realizować różnorodne zadania, takie jak tworzenie treści (teksty, zdjęcia, wideo), planowanie strategii komunikacyjnych i procesów, budowanie społeczności i relacji, a także administrowanie platformami online.

    Przemyslaw Dobrzynski

    Senior Communication Specialist at the Polish Platform for Homeland Security

    I’ve been working at PPHS since November 2017. For a long time, I was responsible for implementing both international and national security projects. As PPHS developed and the Communication Department was established, I was promoted to a role focused entirely on communication.

    I currently serve as the Communication & Dissemination Manager for EU-funded security projects. My responsibilities also include managing the online channels run by PPHS and supporting the team with ongoing tasks.

    I have a broad set of skills, enabling me to handle a variety of tasks such as content creation (texts, photos, videos), communication and process planning, community and relationship building, as well as managing online platforms.
