About this event

  • Event lasts 1 hour 45 minutes

The Department of Media, Connectivity, and Digital Policy of the Ministry of State, in collaboration with the University of Luxembourg, is hosting the 5th and final conference in the "Mediareform" series, titled:

"Disinformation: A Threat to Democracy?"


📅 December 4, 2024
🕔 6:15 PM
📍 Casino Luxembourg - Forum of Contemporary Art


Fake news, misinformation, deepfakes... Disinformation, amplified by social media and artificial intelligence, poses a serious threat to democracies. According to the Medialux study, 98.9% of Luxembourgers report having been exposed to false or distorted information.


This conference will explore the ethical and societal challenges of this phenomenon: how can we combat it without fueling opinion polarization or mistrust?


Elisabeth Margue, Minister Delegate to the Prime Minister for Media and Connectivity, will conclude the event with a closing speech.
