Hearings - Challenges of the future information environment - 07-09-2026 - Committee on Security and Defence - Special Committee on the European Democracy Shield

On 7 September, the SEDE and EUDS Committees will hold a joint public hearing on the Challenges of the future information environment, with Members of the IMCO and LIBE Committees invited.

The hearing will examine emerging vectors of interference and discuss how the EU and its partners can strengthen resilience and safeguard democratic values in an increasingly complex information environment.

Findings from the NATO Strategic Communications Centre of Excellence's project “NextGen Information Environment” will be presented.
