The increasing volatility of the security environment in the international system has been affecting the Euro-Atlantic space and Western normative influence in many ways. One such way is disinformation, which, as one of the most cost-effective means of disruption, has become a common practice of strategic competitors of countries that integrate that space, such as the USA and Portugal. Considering that resilience starts with the protection of democratic values and institutions, public policies must pay attention to the undermining of the foundation of democracies through, among other actions, disinformation and information manipulation campaigns that foster distrust. This project develops activities promoting media literacy and critical thinking, focusing on a training program targeted at young/university-age individuals and practitioners working in all kinds of governmental and non-governmental institutions, including in the area of defense and foreign affairs, as well as a conference and a practitioner workshop focusing on the exchange of best-practices. The contents of the training program focus on public policies developed in the USA and Portugal individually and bilaterally, but also multilaterally, namely in the context of NATO and the European Union (EU), as well as on key concepts. These activities target university students, practitioners, and the wider public with the purpose of enabling them to help counter serious disruptions to our communities that can threaten our democratic political systems and institutions and render them vulnerable to further hostile interference. The project also includes the compilation of a toolbox for citizens to counter disinformation and foster critical thinking.
