DCU’s Eileen Culloty contributed to a new seminar series on disinformation and the far-right in Ireland. The first seminar examined the role of disinformation in far-right strategies at the international and Irish level while discussing and exploring strategies to counteract them. It will feature Eileen Culloty (DCU), Aoife Gallagher (ISD), and Owen Worth (UL). A recording the seminar is available here.
