Risk Drivers

What is pushing the current reading.

The current landscape shows a significant surge in disinformation, especially from state actors like Russia, which is actively spreading anti-Ukrainian narratives in Poland. This is compounded by misinformation about COVID-19 vaccines and false claims in political contexts, such as those involving elections and public figures. The proliferation of fake news and deepfakes further exacerbates the situation, undermining public trust and potentially destabilizing societies. The systemic nature of these issues indicates a persistent and evolving threat that requires coordinated countermeasures.
