With information more accessible than ever, the media landscape has evolved into a battlefield for shaping perceptions and exerting influence. With high-stakes elections and ongoing conflicts, such as the Russia-Ukraine war, the role of media is more critical than ever. Experts will examine the diverse narratives emerging in today's media, exploring how they are constructed and their impact on public opinion, policy decisions, and international relations.
