On October 8, 2026, Monaco's government launched the 'Youth Facing Disinformation' program as part of the Council of Europe's 'Journalists Matter' campaign. This initiative aims to address the challenges of disinformation among young people in the digital age. Approximately 100 young Europeans, including three Monegasque students, will participate in a conference in Strasbourg on November 9-10, 2026, focusing on the role of journalism and media literacy. The program includes a fictional video series exploring disinformation mechanisms, released weekly starting October 8. The initiative aims to empower youth to engage in discussions about disinformation and develop responses to it, rather than leaving the conversation solely to media professionals. The event will feature round-table discussions with experts and educators to raise awareness of disinformation's impact.
